OLD FASHIONED POTATO CAKES

Steps:

• Mix mashed potatoes, flour, onion, egg, black pepper, and salt together in a bowl until batter consistency.

POTATO PATTIES | FRIED POTATO CAKES

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, mix together the cold mashed potatoes and the egg. Make sure the egg is evenly distributed through the potatoes.
• Add the grated onion, flour, salt, and pepper and use a fork to gently mix in the ingredients.
• Add enough oil to a large fry pan so that it is approximately 1/2" deep and place over medium heat. Allow the oil to come to temperature, about 350°F.
• Scoop scant 1/2 cups of the potato mixture and gently drop them into the hot oil. Do not overcrowd the pan -- cook no more than 3-4 patties at a time. Gently, flatten each mound into a patty shape with a spatula.
• Fry for about 2 1/2 to 3 minutes on the first side, until golden brown. Then, slide the spatula under the patty and turn it over. You'll find enlisting a second utensil makes the flip a bit easier! Then, cook for another 2 to 2 1/2 minutes.
• Transfer the cooked patty to a cooling rack placed over paper towels. Allow to cool slightly, serve, and enjoy!

GOURMET POTATO PATTIES

Steps:

• Beat cream cheese, flour, parsley and paprika in medium bowl with mixer until blended. Add cheddar; mix well. Blend in milk and egg. Stir in onions.
• Break potatoes into shreds. Stir into cream cheese mixture.
• Brush butter onto bottom of medium skillet; heat on medium heat. Add potato mixture in batches, using 1/4 cup potato mixture for each patty and flattening if necessary to make thin 3-inch patty. Cook until crisp and golden brown on both sides, turning once. Drain patties on paper towels before serving.

OVEN BAKED GOLDEN POTATOES

Steps:

• Peel potatoes, pat dry, quarter and place on a lined with baking paper baking sheet.
• Drizzle potatoes with oil and bake in preheated oven at 200°C (approximatly 400°F) for 30-35 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown. Remove from oven and arrange on plates. Serve sprinkled with sea salt.

FRIED MASHED POTATO PATTIES

Steps:

• Combine the mashed potatoes and milk in a large bowl. Mix well. Add the egg, salt, pepper, flour, and herbs (if using). Mix until the egg and flour are completely incorporated. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Form the mashed potato mixture into patties. Add the patties to the skillet in a single layer (in batches if necessary). Cook, turning once, until golden brown on each side. Serve hot with sour cream or ketchup, if desired.

POTATO FRITTERS WITH CHIVES

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the mashed potatoes, ½ cup of the flour, egg, chives, and sea salt.
• Use a spatula to mix the ingredients together to make the fritter batter. Add up to 2 extra tablespoons of the flour until your fritter batter is thick enough that it will stick together.
• Then, use your hands to form 12 fritters. Pat them down so they look like small and thin burger patties. Place the formed fritters on a plate.
• In a large nonstick skillet, heat up two tablespoons of the oil. Let it heat up for a few minutes over medium-high heat. Then, carefully place as many fritters as you can in the pan without them overlapping. You will probably need to cook them in two batches.
• Let the fritters cook for about 5 minutes. Then, use a spatula to flip them over to cook for another 5 minutes.
• The fritters should be golden brown on both sides when they are done.
• Transfer the cooked fritters to a serving plate lined with paper towels and cook the second batch in the remaining two tablespoons of oil.
• Serve the fritters hot with optional sour cream (for dipping).
