I always make extra mashed potatoes so we can have these potatoe cakes the following night. They are also good with breakfast! Ingredients:
2 cups mashed potatoes |
1 egg (beat) |
1/2 cup flour |
1/4 tea. garlic salt (or more to taste) |
2 tbs. butter |
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese |
salt to taste |
Directions:
1. Mix together mashed potatoes, egg, flour and garlic salt. Stir like mad to blend.
2. Melt 1Tb. butter in skillet. (cast iron preferably) over low heat. Drop by spoonfulls into melted butter . Drop enough to flatten out to about a 4 inch pancake that is about 1/2 to 1 inch thick.
3. Sprinkle cheddar cheese onto the mashed potatoe cake. Spoon more potatoe over the cheese and cook till the bottom is brown (about 10 minutes)...flip and cook other side till brown...about another 10 minutes will do. The 2nd tablespoon of butter is for the second side.......
