    In Large Pot, Boil the Potatoes Until Soft. Do not Salt the Water Until Ready to Mash the Potatoes With the Other Ingredients.

    Done

    While Still Warm, Mash the Potatoes With the Feta Cheese, Green Onion, Red Onion, Dill, Mint, Egg, Lemon Juice, *salt and Pepper. *taste the Mixture First Before Adding the Salt Because Feta Itself Is Quite Salty. Place the Potato Mixture in the Refrigerator to Firm Up. Refrigerate Potato Mixture Until Ready to Fry.

    Flatten the Balls Slightly and Dredge in Flour. Heat the Olive Oil in the Pan and Fry Up the Cakes Until Golden Brown on Both Sides. Drain on Paper Towel.
