Instructions
1️⃣ Prep the Potatoes: Place grated potatoes in a bowl, sprinkle with salt, and squeeze out any excess moisture.

4️⃣ Assemble the Stuffed Cakes: Place a spoonful of the beef mixture onto one potato patty, sprinkle with shredded cheddar, then top with another patty. Gently press the edges to seal.
5️⃣ Fry the Stuffed Potato Cakes: Return to the pan and fry each potato cake until crispy and golden on both sides, allowing the cheese inside to melt.
