Iranian crispy potato patties, which is called Kookoo sibzamini کوکو سیب زمینی in Farsi, is a classic dish. First of all, I should give a brief description about what is kookoo کوکو. In cookbooks from Safavid Dynasty امپراطوری صفوی (about 400 years ago), is mentioned kookoo.
Kookoo/kuku کوکو is a popular Persian dish patty with eggs as main ingredient along with various ingredients such as: vegetables or meat. Kookoo can be vegetarian or non-vegetarian,. Kookoo is served either hot or cold with rice or with bread. Generally, it is perfect to serve almost with everything from roasted meat, chicken, fish to rice and bread. There are different recipes for making kookoo کوکو . Two of more popular ones are: herb kookoo or kookoo sabzi کوکو سبزی and kookoo sibzamini کوکو سیب زمینی. Kookoo is a light meal, that can be served as a starer, side dish or a light supper. One of the most popular sandwiches in sandwich shops in Iran, is potato patties sandwich or sandwich-e kookoo sibzamini in Ciabatta bread. This sandwich was, is and will be forever favourite for every Iranian and specially for kids and school students. All of us have delicious memories from kookoo sibzamini sandwich.You can make kookoo sibzamini with freshly boiled potatoes or with leftover mashed potatoes.

Place potatoes in a pot. Add water to cover them. Cook until tender. Peel the potatoes and let to cool completely, as, cold potatoes reduces the percent of falling apart of your kookoo while cooking them. So,, mash cold potatoes with a masher. grate onion too.
3

Add spices, egg, bread crumbs and grated onion (onion juice also can cause kookoo to fall apart while cooking), therefore, drain the juice and mix all ingredients together.
4

Form patties in oval shape.. Heat the oil in a pan and fry for 4-5minutes on each side until golden and crispy.
5

Remove the patties from the pan and drain on paper towel.
6

Traditionally, no need to any sauce, as it is just full of flavour and tasty but if you like, add ketchup, mayonnaise or mustard sauce
