Do you have leftover mashed potatoes from your Easter weekend festivities? Often towards the end of the week my mom would use up the leftovers and on occasion she would make these potato pancakes using mashed potatoes. She didn't usually add cheese, I did. Isn't everything better with a bit of cheese?
- 2 cups of seasoned mashed potatoes
- 1/2 cup of grated sharp cheddar cheese
- 1 or 2 tablespoon of chopped green onion
- 1 egg
- 2 tablespoons flour
- oil for browning
- Combine all the above ingredients.
- Shape into patties.
- Brown in a bit of oil on medium heat.
- Serve with sour cream and or ketchup.
