Peel and grate the potatoes, then place them in a clean tea towel and squeeze out any excess liquid.

In a mixing bowl, combine the grated potatoes, chopped onion, minced garlic, flour, baking powder, egg, salt, and pepper. Mix well.

Heat enough vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat to cover the bottom of the pan.

Spoon the potato mixture into the pan, making sure to flatten each fritter slightly with a spatula.

Fry the fritters for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy.

Remove the fritters from the pan and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.

Serve hot with your favourite dipping sauce or as a side dish.
