type potatoe fritter into search on you left but make sure you put anytime in the date posted section

lots there, i would personally add corn cooked onions and perhaps a little flour, egg cheese or courgette grated
yum

do let us know how it went

Personally I would just fry small patties in butter. But as said add in a few other bits you might like.

The search thing gets a lttle irritating as it implies its all already been said which is a bit sad for us newbys.

generally if you have mashed potatoe its not gonna work, if you fry it you will get it going a bit runny too, i would make bubble and squeak outta it ... ... . . hmmm i might have that tonight :)

why not roll into balls then roll in bread crumbs and make those (over the top expensive! ) pom-poms?

noonesgirl, Jul 27, 12:00am
Yes, last time I made them with cheese, egg etc they did go runy & loooked more like crunchy fried potato,

Leftover mashed potatoes (about a quart)
1 onion sliced
1 egg
1 cup grated cheese
Flour
Salt and Pepper
Combine mashed potatoes, onion, egg, and cheese. . Shape into large size balls. Roll into flour and flatten into patties. Melt butter in pan and brown for about 5 minutes on either side. Salt and papper to taste. Don't forget to roll them in the flour it helps keep them together

I make something similar only that I mix a handful of flour into the spud then form the mix into a long roll and cut into slices then fry. .
