Freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup (50g) oil, for frying
Dipping sauce
1/2 cup (120g) sour cream

Transfer the potatoes into a kitchen towel and squeeze as much liquid as you possible can.
Place the potatoes into a large bowl.
Add cheeses, onion, garlic powder, flour, salt, pepper and eggs.
Stir to combine.
Heat oil over medium high heat.
Use an ice cream scoop to take equal amounts of potato mixture and add to the pan.

Cook about 3 or 4 patties at a time.
