What to make with leftover mashed potatoes – Potato Fritters
Mashed potatoes are divine and although there are rarely any leftover mashed potatoes in my house, I occasionally make more than we can eat.
One day when thinking about something different to do with the leftover mashed potatoes, I tried this.
How to make potato fritters with leftover mashed potatoes
Place the mashed potatoes in a mixing bowl (about 2 cups). Add about 1 cup of extra sharp cheddar cheese and a beaten egg. Mix together well. Place about 1/2 cup each of panko and Italian style bread crumbs on a plate. Roll the potatoes into a ball and rolled into the bread crumbs. Repeat for all the potatoes.
Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium high heat. Add the potato fritters and brown on all sides. Drain on paper towels and then serve with whatever other leftovers you might have.
Yum!
