👨‍🍳 Instructions:

1. Prepare the Potato Mixture:

  • In a large bowl, combine mashed potatoes, egg, flour, cheese (if using), herbs, salt, and pepper.

  • Mix until all ingredients are fully combined. The mixture should be soft but able to hold its shape. If too sticky, add a little more flour.

2. Shape the Patties:

  • Scoop out portions of the mixture and roll into balls (about the size of a golf ball).

  • Gently flatten each ball into a round patty, about 1/2 inch thick.

3. Cook the Patties:

  • Heat butter or oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.

  • Carefully place the patties in the pan, leaving space between each one.

  • Cook for about 3–4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.

4. Drain & Serve:

  • Once cooked, transfer the patties to a paper towel-lined plate to remove excess oil.

  • Serve warm and crispy with dipping sauces like sour cream, ketchup, or garlic yogurt sauce.

  • Use cold mashed potatoes for easier shaping.

  • Make them smaller for bite-sized appetizers.

  • Add chopped herbs or chili flakes for extra flavor and color.

  • These patties reheat well in a skillet or air fryer — perfect for meal prep!
