Peel and wash potatoes.
Place them in boiling salted water.
Cook in the oven for around 10-12 minutes. You want them to be tender but not falling apart.
While the potatoes are cooking peel and dice an onion.
Fry this in oil, I used a sunflower spray oil, until lightly browned. Remove and set aside.
Remove your potatoes and either cool in ice water or place into cool water, replacing twice during cooling, until the potatoes are cool enough to be handled.
Grate the cooled potatoes. You can use a muslin cloth to remove any excess water but I didn't do this, and had no issues.
Combine together your grated potato and cooked onion. Add seasoning (salt & pepper).
Shape into your designed shape. I used a ramekin for each one to get the shape I wanted, but this really isn't necessary.
Cook in the oven at gas mark 5 (190C) for around 20-22 minutes until they reach your preferred brownness. For an extra good crunch turn halfway through and spray with oil on both sides while doing so.
Serve and devour! I had a fried egg and spring onions with mine but you can enjoy with a tasty breakfast, on a Moroccan lamb burger or however you fancy really!
