POTATO PATTIES | FRIED POTATO CAKES



Potato Patties | Fried Potato Cakes image

Fried Potato Patties are the best way to use up leftover mashed potatoes -- gorgeously golden brown on the outside, and fluffy, creamy potato heaven on the inside!

Provided by Kelly Anthony

Categories     Appetizer     Side Dish

Time 22m

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups cold, leftover mashed potatoes
1 large egg
1/3 cup grated yellow onion
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon Kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
About 1 1/2 cup canola oil

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!
