Crispy fried potato cutlets are a delicious companion for eggs and bacon. Ingredients:
1 pound potatoes, peeled |
2 slices bread, cubed |
1 egg, beaten |
1 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper |
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced |
2 sprigs fresh cilantro, chopped |
1 cup bread crumbs |
1 cup vegetable oil for frying |
Directions:
1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add potatoes and cook until tender but still firm, about 15 minutes. Drain and cool.
2. Mash potatoes and bread cubes together in a large bowl. Mix in egg, salt, cayenne, jalapeno, and cilantro. Shape potato mixture into patties and coat with bread crumbs.
3. Heat oil in a large tall-sided skillet until almost smoking. Carefully slide cutlets into oil. Cook, turning once, until golden brown on both sides. Remove from heat and drain. Serve warm.
