Crispy Mashed Potato Patties

by

Prep Time: 20 minutes | Cook Time: 15 minutes | Serves: 6–8 patties

These Crispy Mashed Potato Patties are golden on the outside, soft and cheesy on the inside, and flavored with herbs for a comforting bite. They’re perfect for using up leftover mashed potatoes or making fresh ones just for this dish. The secret? Mixing in cheese and breadcrumbs, which give them a fluffy texture inside and a crispy crust outside.

Ingredients

  • 3 cups mashed potatoes (cooled, not too soft)

  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella or cheddar cheese

  • 1 egg, lightly beaten

  • ½ cup breadcrumbs (plus more for coating)

  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley or chives, chopped

  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder

  • ½ teaspoon paprika

  • Salt and black pepper to taste

  • 2–3 tablespoons vegetable oil (for frying)
