Boil the potatoes with their skin on. Then rinse with cold water and remove the skin. Press the still warm potatoes through a potato press and let them cool. This can also be done a day in advance.
Grate the cheese and add the remaining ingredients to the potatoes. Mix well and season well.
Heat 1 teaspoon margarine in a pan. Shape the potato mixture into approx. 12-14 thalers. Fry in portions on both sides for about five minutes over medium heat until golden brown.
We always eat fish with spinach with it, but they also taste good with other side dishes.
Tip: The potato thalers can also be frozen very well.
