  1. Grate the potatoes on the coarse side of a grater and squeeze out as much liquid as you can in a clean tea towel. Heat the air fryer to 190°C / 375°F.

  2. Mix the potato with the onion, flour, salt, pepper and 1 tablespoon of the oil, stirring in any starch left at the bottom of the bowl.

  3. Press into 8 flat patties about 1.5 cm thick and brush with the remaining oil.

  4. Cook in batches for 15 minutes, turning once, until deep golden and crisp.
