Once the potatoes are grated, sprinkle them with salt and let them sit for 20 minutes. Then, press them in a strainer to remove any excess moisture.
Add eggs, flour, seasoning, and herbs, and mix thoroughly.
Heat butter in a frying pan, add thin layers of the mixture, and shallow fry on both sides until they are golden brown.
