Preparation

Step 1

In a medium saucepan, cover the potatoes with one inch of water and place over high heat. Boil until easily pierced with a fork, about 10 minutes. Strain and transfer to a large bowl.

Step 2

Mash potato with a fork until creamy (some small lumps are ok). Add the onion, garlic, ground beef, ground turkey, parsley, cilantro, dill, salt, pepper, and mix until evenly combined.

Step 3

Lightly beat one egg and add to the mixture, combining evenly.

Step 4

Shape ⅓ a cup of the meat mixture into a 1 ½ inch patty. Repeat with the remaining mixture.

Step 5

Roll each patty in the flour and move to a resting plate.

Step 6

Heat a quarter of an inch of oil in a heavy bottomed pan over medium-high heat. Lightly beat the two remaining eggs. Dip patties into egg and place in hot oil. Fry in a single layer, being careful not to overcrowd the pan (you can have two pans going at once) for 5 to 7 minutes on one side, then flip and cook for an additional 3 minutes. Make sure the oil doesn’t get too hot or start to burn, turning down the heat if necessary.

Step 7

Place patties on a plate lined with a paper towel.

Step 8

Serve immediately in Merget Kaski.
