Crispy Potato Patties Recipe

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cook Time: 8 minutes

Total Time: 23 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups mashed potatoes
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 1 onion, minced (optional) I didn't use the onion
  • 1/4 tsp. salt
  • 1/8 tsp. white pepper
  • 2-3 Tbsp. olive oil
  • 1/2 cup flour

Preparation:

Mix together mashed potatoes, beaten egg and onion in a medium bowl. Add salt and pepper and stir. Over medium heat, heat olive oil in a medium size nonstick frying pan. Drop about 1/4 cup of the potato mixture into the frying pan, patting it into 4 inch circles that are 1/2" thick. Cook until bottom is browned and crisp, about 3-4 minutes. Using a spatula (I sprayed the spatula with Pam Olive Oil) Carefully turn the patty over and cook the second side until brown and crisp, 3-4 minutes. Serve with ketchup or salsa

Makes:  * 8 Crispy Potato Patties
