Mashed Potato Cakes image

My mother used to make too many mashed potatoes, just so she'd have the leftovers to make these cakes. Now I do, too. They're very simple and a great way to use up leftover mashed potatoes.

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 cups mashed potatoes
1 egg
1 tablespoon dried parsley
1/2 teaspoon onion powder or 3 tablespoons grated fresh onions

Steps:

  • Mix all ingredients.
  • If mashed potatoes are warm, chill for a couple of hours.
  • Form into 4-6 patties about 1/2" thick.
  • If mixture is too moist to form patties, add a little flour.
  • Dip in flour.
  • Saute slowly in butter, adding more as needed, until crispy on the outside and golden brown.
  • Great with bratwurst, ham, meatloaf, or any meat that doesn't have gravy.
  • Also good with bacon and eggs for breakfast.
