Ingredients
- 2 cups cold mashed potatoes
- 1 large egg beaten
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour plus more if needed
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- Oil for frying
- Chopped fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- In a large bowl, mix together the mashed potatoes, beaten egg, flour, salt, and pepper until well combined. If the mixture seems loose, add a little more flour at a time until it is stiff.
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Scoop about 1/4 cup of the potato mixture per cake into the hot oil. Flatten slightly with the back of a spatula.
- Fry each side for about 3-4 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Drain on paper towels. Sprinkle with fresh parsley when serving.
