Title: Mashed Potato Patties
Categories: Easy, Leftovers, Tested
Yield: 2 Servings

1 c Mashed potatoes (left over)
2 tb Shredded carrots
1 tb Shredded onion
3 tb Egg liquid (micro leftover)
1 tb Corn meal
ds Salt & Pepper to taste
1/3 c Panko crumbs
3 tb Peanut oil or more

Easy use for leftover mashed potatoes.

You can add shredded cheese, green onions to the mixture if you want.
Use a couple tablespoons.

Break egg into small pyrex cup, scramble. Set aside.

To potatoes add carrots, onion, 3 tb egg mixture, and corn meal. Mix
throughly and divide into 4 small patties.

Measure out panko crumbs and set aside.

Brush egg mixture over top side of patty. Sprinkle top of patty with
Panko crumbs, press in to make sure they really stick to the potato.
Turn patty over and brush that side with egg liquid, sprinkle with
Panko and press in to make sure they stick.

Choose a large teflon fry pan (do not crowd patties). Place oil in
pan and heat over medium heat (No 6 on my stove). When oil is hot
enough place patties into pan, turn down to lower heat (No 3 on my
stove) and fry for 3 minutes. Flip, turn up heat again to slighly
higher, add slight amount of oil if necessary. Cook another 3
minutes until second side is golden brown.

Tested 1/15/16 - very nice. Crisp on outside, fluffy on inside. Will
certainly make this again. Good use for those leftover mashed
potatoes.

Signature recipe of ladies on the web.

MMMMM-------------------WENDY CERACCHE DBCP84B------------------------

MMMMM--------------------MAKES A MEDIUM LOAF-------------------------
3/4 c Mashed Potatoes *
3/4 c Potato Water
2 1/4 tb Vegetable Oil
3/4 ts Salt
1 tb Sugar
3 c Bread Flour
1 1/2 ts Yeast
2 ts Wheat Germ

* Mashed Potatoes = Use boiled or instant, but add minced onion,
parmesan cheese and horseradish. The dough is very liquid and the
bread will not rise very high but it makes a chewy bread similar in
texture to a knish or a potato kugel.

MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06

Title: Poutines Rapees
Categories: Vegetables, Desserts, Pork
Yield: 6 Servings

1/2 lb Salt pork, fatty
4 Potatoes; cooked & mashed
10 Potatoes; finely grated
Salt & Pepper

"For many Acadians living in southeastern New Brunswick,
Poutine Rapee, potato dumpling dish with a mixture of
seasoned pork in the centre, is considered a national
dish. In other parts of Acadia, these delicacies are
prepared without the meat and fish is sometimes added to
fricot. Although the greyish colour and gluey texture of
the poutines makes them appear somewhat unappetizing,
their taste more than compensates for their unattractive
appearance."

Soak the pork overnight in cold water to remove the salt,
and cut into cubes. Extract the water from the grated
potatoes by putting them in a cotton bag and squeezing
vigourously. Mix the mashed potatoes with grated potatoes.
Season with salt and pepper. Roll the potato mixture into
balls resembling small snowballs.

Make a hole in the centre of the potato ball and add 1
Tbsp of the salt pork. Close the hole and roll the
poutines in flour. Gently drop the poultines 2 or 3 at a
time, into a large pot of boiling salted water, ensuring
that the water is kept at a rolling boil.

Simmer the poutines for 2-3 hours. Eat the poultines hot
with butter, salt and pepper, or as a dessert with sugar
and molasses.

Makes: 6 Poutines

Hi Ed,

Howdy!

My Wife puts left-over Mashed Potatoes into a Tupperware container and keeps it in the refrigerator to make "Potato Cakes" the next day.

She adds some Flour to some of the left-over Mashed Potato's,

I'll add an egg or two (depends on amount of potato) and onion--either
fresh or dry flakes. Sometimes instead of using all flour for
thickening, I'll use bread crumbs. It's really a "no brainer" thing; my
mom did it from time to time but with 5 of us kids, there usually
weren't too many leftover potatoes. (G)

Pats some of the mixture in Her hands to make it Flat and puts in it
the Frying Pan on the Range to Cook some of them.

After they're cooked, ketchup is good as a topping. This is one of the relatively few times I grab the bottle and use it.

Any other ideas for left-over Mashed Potatoes?

Topping for a shepherd's pie? Do a "throw together" one of browned meat (hamburg works fine), veggies like carots/celery/onion/maybe peas,
potato chunks and gravy mixed & poured into an unbaked pie shell. Top
with mashed potatoes, bake until hot and browned.

Any other ideas

For fancy potato cakes, add to the potato mixture minced ham,
diced onion or leeks and grated cheese to liven things up. Then
proceed as usual.



Cheers
