tips:

-makes apx 11 potato cakes, depends on the size of potatoes
-cooking any batch after the first the pan will of course already be hot, add more oil & just immediately add the potato cake
-you can always add a little more oil if a more crispy texture is desired
-another option is to leave the skin on the potato
-you can always just cook some of the potato mixture & save some for another time (refrigerate if saving some for later)
