My family just loves my Irish potato patties. I hope you do as well. I love the beautiful color and crispiness my iron skillet gives them. Enjoy!

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 lb yellow potatoes ~ mashed - no butter or milk
4 slice thick bacon - cooked crisp and save the drippings
1 1/2 Tbsp grated onion
kosher salt & fresh cracked black pepper
2 Tbsp flour
1 Tbsp fresh parsely, chopped
sour cream

Steps:

  • 1. If you have an iron skillet, use it for these cakes. Browns nicely. If not any skillet will do. Fry your bacon until crisp and drain. Save the drippings and add some extra if you have it. You just want enough drippings in the pan, that the potatoes won't absorb too much before nicely browned.
  • 2. Mash potatoes ( cool ) and fold in the flour, salt, pepper, bacon, parsley and onion.
  • 3. Get skillet good and hot, but not smoking. Make 4 - 6 patties with the potato mixture and place in hot grease. Re salt and pepper. Fry for 4 - 5 minutes on the first side, can carefully lift around the edge to see if browned enough. Carefully flip to the other side and cook until golden crispy. Drain on paper towels.
  • 4. Serve with sour cream if desired. These cakes are so good! Enjoy them with breakfast, dinner or just a snack.

I thought these potato cakes were a bit bland. I think I'll add some more salt and pepper next time.

I had a hard time finding colcannon potatoes, so I used regular mashed potatoes instead. They still turned out great!

These potato cakes were a bit too greasy for my taste. I think I'll try baking them next time.

I loved the crispy crust on these potato cakes. They were the perfect side dish for my corned beef and cabbage.

I had trouble getting the potato cakes to hold together. I think I might have added too much milk.

These potato cakes were a hit! I followed the recipe exactly and they turned out crispy on the outside and soft and fluffy on the inside. I served them with sour cream and applesauce, and they were delicious.
