Peel and grate the potatoes into a bowl.

Squeeze as much liquid as you can from the grated potatoes.

Add 1/2 cup Cheddar cheese and 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese to the potatoes.

Add 1/2 tsp garlic powder, 1 tsp salt, freshly ground black pepper, and 1/4 cup all-purpose flour to the mixture.

Add 2 beaten eggs and mix until well combined.

Heat about 1/4 cup oil in a skillet over medium heat.

Take about 2 tablespoons of the mixture and flatten it with a spoon into a pancake shape.

Cook the pancake in the hot oil until browned, about 4 minutes per side.

Drain the pancakes on paper towels to absorb excess oil.

Serve warm with 1/2 cup sour cream and 1 tbsp chilli garlic sauce on top.
