This recipe is based on one from an excellent cookbook called Eat the Norway, where they say of it: These potato patties are served as an evening meal with bread and tomato sauce. Ingredients:
6 large boiled potatoes |
2 tablespoons soft butter |
1 large egg |
2 tablespoons flour |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper |
1/2 lb ham, in pieces |
1 cup chopped onion |
1 clove garlic, minced |
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley |
1/2 teaspoon dijon mustard |
1 tablespoon vegetable oil |
1 tablespoon butter |
tomato sauce, such as chili sauce or marinara sauce (or even catsup, if you're so inclined) |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, mash the boiled potatoes together with the butter, then stir in the egg, flour, salt, and pepper and mix well.
2. From the potato mixture form 16 thin, flat patties.
3. In a food processor, whir together the ham, onion, garlic, parsley, and Dijon until filling mixture is well-chopped and incorporated.
4. Spread the filling on 8 of the patties and then use remaining patties to top the filling; press the edges together well.
5. In a skillet, heat the oil and butter together, then brown the patties on each side (turning only once) until golden.
6. Serve them hot with tomato sauce and toast.
