All the recipes sound delicious and I'm going to give them a try. The one I use is this:





mashed potatoes


raw egg


salt


pepper


grated parmesan or romano cheese


seasoned bread crumbs





Mix all ingredients except the bread crumbs. Form patties and coat with bread crumbs. Fry in oil or butter until golden.
I add 2 eggs, 3 cups of mashed pots, green onions, cheese,1/4 cups flour, garlic powder %26amp; lemon pepper.





Mix together everything except cheese %26amp; flour.


Make patties then sprinkle flour over patties.


Put in oil %26amp; cook on med until brown.


While hot put cheese on the top.


My bf loves them that way.

Boxty - Irish Potato Cakes Recipe





Most cultures have some version of potato cakes. Traditional Irish boxty potato cakes use both fresh potatoes and leftover mashed potatoes.


INGREDIENTS:


1 cup raw, grated potatoes


1 cup leftover mashed potatoes


1 cup all-purpose flour


2 tsp baking powder


2 tsp salt


2 eggs, lightly beaten


1/4 cup (about) milk to mix


Butter or oil for frying


Sugar (optional)


PREPARATION:


Place the grated raw potatoes in a clean cloth and twist to remove excess moisture.





Whisk together flour, salt, and baking powder.





Combine flour mixture into raw potatoes, mashed potatoes, and eggs. Add enough mix to make a batter.





Heat a heavy skillet over medium heat and add butter or oil. Drop potato batter by the tablespoon into the hot pan. Brown on both sides (about 4 minutes per side). Butter each boxty and serve hot with or without sugar.





Yield: about 4 servings
Mashed Potato Pancakes Recipe





Ingredients:





3 tablespoons finely chopped onion


1/3 cup butter


4 cups cooked mashed potatoes


2 eggs, beaten


1/2 cup flour





Directions:





Cook onion in pan in about half of the butter until onion is translucent. Remove onion from pan with a slotted spoon, allowing the melted butter and pan drippings to remain in the pan.





Combine onion, mashed potatoes and egg. Sprinkle with flour. Add remaining butter to pan and heat to medium/high heat. Add potato pancakes and cook about 5 minutes each side until browned.
Lefse is a great use for left over mashed potatoes.





4 cups mashed potatoes (cold %26amp; no liquids added)


3 tablespoons whipping cream


2 tablespoons oil


1 teaspoon salt


2 teaspoons sugar


1 cup flour (scant)








Mix all ingredients together and knead well.


Roll into long rolls, cut into 12 pieces.


Roll out on a floured board (using as little flour as possible) about the size of a dinner plate.


Bake on a hot grill, turning before lefse sticks and when brown spot and bubbles appear.


Watch closely; it doesn't take long.





They are great served hot or cold with butter and brown sugar and then rolled up.





Also good served hot with sausages rolled up and syrup.
