Sicilian Potato Pancakes

Fill a large pot with salted water and bring to a boil. Add potatoes and cook until fork tender, about 25 minutes. Drain.

Transfer potatoes to a large bowl and mash well. Add 2 eggs, bread crumbs, cheese, onion, parsley, garlic and 1/4 teaspoon salt. If mixture feels dry add third egg. Mix gently with your hands and form into 12 ovals about 1 inch wide and 3 inches long.

Put 1/4 cup olive oil in a large skillet, over medium heat. Add potatoes and fry until golden brown on both sides, about 3 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels and serve immediately.
