Mix together the Potato Cake ingredients in a bowl until just combined.

Spread the panko or flour out on a large plate or baking tray (to fit 6 patties).

Measure out 1/4 cup level amount of potato mixture OR a slightly heaped ice cream scooper (this is what I use because using the lever, it pops out easily) and drop onto panko/flour. Repeat to fill plate / baking tray (don't crowd, difficult to handle).

Use an egg flip (or base of cup) to pat it down to 1.5cm/2/3" thick patties, then flip and pat to coat the other side with panko/flour. Set aside and repeat with remaining potato mixture.

Heat 1/2 the oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Cook 6 patties at a time until golden brown on each side - around 2 minutes, then flip and cook the other side.

Remove onto a paper towel lined baking tray. Cook remaining patties.

Serve hot!
