Made potato cakes with leftover mashed potatoes. Yum!
Here is what I did.
Started with two cups of mashed potatoes.
Added a little over a 1/4 cup flour and 1 egg, salt and pepper.
Heated a pan with canola oil and some butter and fried on medium heat on both sides.
Drain on a paper towel and sprinkle salt right away.
Easy and quick!
