Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 c leftover mashed potatoes
3/4 c all-purpose flour
2-3 Tbsp fresh chopped chives
1/2 tsp coarse black pepper
1/2 tsp salt
1 Tbsp garlic juice or use 2 cloves of minced garlic
3/4 c shredded Parmesan cheese
1 large egg, (was all I had)
3/4 - 1 c milk (according to how thick or thin you want pancakes)

Steps:

1. In a large bowl add the cold mashed potatoes, flour, and chopped chive. Add salt and pepper. Stir to blend together.
2. Now add in the garlic juice, about half of the milk, and large egg. Stir until blended together. Instead of grated onions, I chose to use pure garlic juice I had ordered from Amazon.
3. Now add in the Parmesan cheese shreds and stir again.
4. Add additional milk if you prefer a thinner pancake.
5. Add olive or canola oil to large skillet and heat over medium-high heat. Then using a scoop or large spoon, spoon batter into the heated skillet. Allow to cook about 3-4 minutes per side till golden brown.
6. Remove from skillet top with butter, and sour cream or apple sauce, or both if desired while they are still hot. Serve and enjoy.
