NO FAIL HASHBROWNS FOR THIS WEEKEND
This hash brown recipe is fool proof. It will give you crisp potato patties, 
just begging for a dash of hot sauce (or ketchup for the kids). The following 
instructions are for pattys, but you can also spread the mixture out in a big 
frying pan, then cut into wedges for serving.

3 cups shredded potatos or frozen potatos(I think work better)
¼ cup very thinly sliced green onions (optional)
2 tablespoons all purpose flour
1 egg (lightly beaten)
1½ teaspoons salt (or to taste)
¼ teaspoon black pepper (or to taste)
Gently toss the potatoes with the flour, salt and pepper (and onion if you are 
using it), then gently (I use my hands) mix in the lightly beaten egg. NOTE: I 
mix the salt & pepper into the egg to make sure the spices are distributed 
evenly throughout the potatoes.
Pre-heat your heavy frying pan to medium high and brush your skillet with a 
generous coating of vegetable oil (I like to use my electric frying pan).

Place 1/3 (lightly packed) potato mixture onto HOT, greased frying pan and then 
gently flatten the mound with your spatula, like this: Fry patties for 4 
minutes, per side, or until they are golden brown and crispy.


Drain on paper towels, sprinkle with salt and serve immediately.
I love how these hash brown patties hold together, you can even pick them up 
and eat them like a commercial hash brown patty, but oh so much better tasting.

Traditional potato pancakes are made from shredded raw potatoes.  If you have 
some cooked mashed potatoes on hand, all you have to do is make them into 
patties and fry them.  I add finely chopped onions and salt and pepper.
Fry them in butter or olive oil until they are browned, about four minutes each 
side.  Top with gravy, sour cream, or nothing.

I agree with Abby.
If my cooked mashed potatoes are runny and don't form into patties I 
add just enough cooked quinoa or cornmeal or oats to help it hold 
together. If I have a cup of mash potatoes about 1/4 cup give or take a 
little works.

Have fun.

Re: [CnD] making leftover mashed potatoes into potato cakes

2017-10-09 Thread Lori Castner via Cookinginthedark
I don't really use a recipe.
I beat two eggs, add them to the mashed potatoes and stir well.
Then I gradually add bisquick about 1/2 cup at a time stirring in to make a 
dough that I can sort of shape. The dough should be about the consistency of 
sticky biscuit dough. I would say I use about 1/3 as much bisquick as mashed 
potatoes (three cups mashed potatoes; one cup bisquick).
I heat an electric frying pan to 350 degrees and butter the pan.
I scoop the dough onto the hot surface about 3/4 cup per patty. I flatten the 
patties with my hand and let cook for six or seven minutes and then flip an 
cook for about the same amount of time.
You want the patties to be firm underneath before flipping.

Traditional potato pancakes are made from shredded raw potatoes.  If you have 
some cooked mashed potatoes on hand, all you have to do is make them into 
patties and fry them.  I add finely chopped onions and salt and pepper.
Fry them in butter or olive oil until they are browned, about four minutes each 
side.  Top with gravy, sour cream, or nothing.

NO FAIL HASHBROWNS FOR THIS WEEKEND
This hash brown recipe is fool proof. It will give you crisp potato patties, 
just begging for a dash of hot sauce (or ketchup for the kids). The following 
instructions are for pattys, but you can also spread the mixture out in a big 
frying pan, then cut into wedges for serving.

3 cups shredded potatos or frozen potatos(I think work better) ¼ cup very 
thinly sliced green onions (optional)
2 tablespoons all purpose flour
1 egg (lightly beaten)
1½ teaspoons salt (or to taste)
¼ teaspoon black pepper (or to taste)
Gently toss the potatoes with the flour, salt and pepper (and onion if you are 
using it), then gently (I use my hands) mix in the lightly beaten egg. NOTE: I 
mix the salt & pepper into the egg to make sure the spices are distributed 
evenly throughout the potatoes.
Pre-heat your heavy frying pan to medium high and brush your skillet with a 
generous coating of vegetable oil (I like to use my electric frying pan).

Place 1/3 (lightly packed) potato mixture onto HOT, greased frying pan and then 
gently flatten the mound with your spatula, like this: Fry patties for 4 
minutes, per side, or until they are golden brown and crispy.


Drain on paper towels, sprinkle with salt and serve immediately.
I love how these hash brown patties hold together, you can even pick them up 
and eat them like a commercial hash brown patty, but oh so much better tasting.

I hate to admit this: we never have leftover mashed potatoes. Our family eats 
them the next day before I can do anything with them!

Hi,

For those of you who have made potato cakes out of leftover mashed potatoes, 
how did you do it?

Hi,

Thanks to everyone who responded to my message. When I get enough leftover
mashed potatoes, I'll have to try the potato cakes.
