Potato Cakes
Leftover mashed potatoes should never go to waste. These Potato pancakes are at their best eaten immediatley after leaving the frying pan. We had them tonight with Meatloaf but they would go with a number of entrees.
2 cups leftover mashed potatoes
1 egg, beaten
1 tablespoon flour, or more if the potatoes are thin
2 tablespoons cream or less if the potatoes are thin
1 tablespoon onion, chopped fine
2-3 tablspoons shortening
Mix together all ingredients except shortening. Heat shortening. Drop potatoes by tablespoon into shortening and brown on both sides.
Serves 4-6 servings.
Mmmm,those sound yummy!I'm not big on wasting leftovers either,nothing goes to watse here:)
