Easy Mashed Potato Cakes

This is certainly more work than mashed potatoes, but on the other hand, I do like the fact that you can do a lot of the work ahead of time and then just dip and fry them at the last minute.

And my family agreed that the crispy panko coating was quite delicious.

Ingredients

– Potatoes – Salt and pepper – Parmesan cheese – Fresh chives – Egg yolk – Eggs – Panko bread crumbs – Vegetable oil

Step: 1

Drain potatoes; return them to the saucepan; let cool for a few minutes.

Step: 2

Step: 3

Add Parmesan, chives, egg yolk, 3/4 teaspoon salt (I did not, as my potatoes were already pretty salty), and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.

Using a potato masher, mash until smooth.
