Grate the canned luncheon meat using a box grater into a large mixing bowl. Aim for thin, noodle-like strips.

If not already shredded, peel and shred the potatoes. Place the shredded potatoes in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much excess moisture as possible. This step is crucial for crispy fritters.

Add the shredded cheddar cheese and the squeezed shredded potatoes to the bowl with the grated luncheon meat.

Crack the two large eggs into the bowl and sprinkle with freshly ground black pepper. Use your hands to thoroughly combine all the ingredients until well incorporated. The mixture should hold together when pressed.

Preheat your air fryer to 375°F. While it preheats, form the mixture into thick, round patties, about 3 inches in diameter and 1/2 inch thick. You should get approximately 8-10 fritters.

Place the fritters in a single layer in the air fryer basket, ensuring not to overcrowd. You may need to cook them in batches. Lightly spray the fritters with cooking spray for extra crispiness, if desired.

Air fry for 10-12 minutes, then flip the fritters and continue to air fry for another 8-10 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy on both sides.

Remove the cooked fritters from the air fryer and serve immediately with a side of ketchup for dipping.
