0 In a small mixing bowl add the ground flaxseeds and 3 tbsp cold water, stir and set aside.
1 Grate the potatoes, squeeze out excess water and place into a mixing bowl.
2 Add all remaining ingredients including the flax egg, except the oil, in with the grated potato.
3 Stir until well combined.
4 Add 2 to 3 tablespoons of oil to a large skillet and heat over a medium heat.
5 When the oil is hot, scoop out approximately 2 tablespoons of potato mixture and add to the skillet. Using a spatula gently press to flatten.
