On a rare occasion we have leftover mashed potatoes. Using Mashed Potatoes (the BEST), I added a modern twist to my mom's old Southern recipe. Increase or decrease onion, garlic, hot sauce, and S&P as to your preference. Crispy on the outside, soft on the inside. Bet you can't eat just one!
Ingredients:
2 cups mashed potatoes
1/3 cup onion, chopped finely
1 teaspoon garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 tablespoons sour cream
5 dashes tabasco sauce
2 eggs (or egg substitute)
2 -3 tablespoons flour
Directions:
1. In medium bowl combine all ingredients.
2. Whisk together until combined well.
3. Consistency should be similar to cornbread mixture.
4. Heat skillet with a light layer of oil on medium-high heat.
5. (Cast iron skillet browns beautifully).
6. Spoon batter to form 3 1/2 to 4 inch rounds.
7. Brown each side to a rich dark golden brown.
8. Potato Pancakes should look like a thick regular pancake.
9. Place on paper towel to drain excess oil.
10. Don't stack on top of each other or the bottom pancakes will become soggy.
