I use maybe cups of leftover, cold mashed potatoes that have been
make with milk and butter, minced or grated onion, 1 egg, some bread
crumbs to consistency to hold shape. Scoop some potato mixture and
form into a ball, drop into hot grease, butter or oil of your choice.
Medium heat. Fry on one side until brown and crispy. Turn the ball
partially over so that you have one flat browned side, one totally
uncooked side plus the side that you have just turned over. Brown
that side then turn again so that you have 3 browned sides. Generally,
the recipes on the 'Net are fairly similar. Tasty. My husband always
looks forward to them.
