This is a great recipe for leftover mashed potatoes. I never liked reheated mashed potatoes, but if you fry them in a pan as a potato pancake, they taste delicious. You might need to adjust the ingredients depending on how much mashed potatoes you have left over.
Ingredients
- 2 cups mashed potatoes
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 0.25 cups dry bread crumbs , or as needed
- 1 tablespoon oil
- 1 tablespoon butter
Instructions
-
1
Combine mashed potatoes, egg, and pepper in a bowl and mix well together.
-
2
Pour bread crumbs into a small bowl. Shape potato mixture into 3-inch patties with wet hands and dip in bread crumbs so they are evenly coated.
-
3
Heat oil and butter in a nonstick skillet over medium heat and cook potato cakes on both sides until they are heated through and browned, about 4 minutes per side.
