Preheat your air fryer to 200°C.

Mix until the mixture holds together comfortably.
Shape into 2–3 thick potato cakes.
Lightly spray the air fryer basket with oil and place the potato cakes inside.
Spray the tops lightly with oil.
Air fry for 10 minutes, carefully turning halfway through, until both sides are crisp and golden.
While the potato cakes finish cooking, fry the remaining egg to your liking.
Stack the potato cakes onto a serving plate and top with the fried egg.
Add any optional toppings and serve immediately.
