Transform cold, leftover mashed potatoes into a whole new side with these delicious potato croquettes.
Tater Cakes!- Mashed Potato Patties
Better known I guess as Mashed Potato Patties, but Tater Cakes sound so much more interesting, don't ya think?
The basic seasoning for my potato patties are always garlic powder, onion powder, and of course, a little Slap Ya Mama {affil link}, but honestly you can flavor these up just about anyway you like.
You can also use a variety of coatings in combination with the flour - bread crumbs are standard, panko bread crumbs are superb, but crushed potato chips or tortilla chips work well, especially the flavored and spicy kinds of chips, heck you can even use crushed plain corn flakes! Use your imagination.
A great way to use leftover mashed potatoes, but these are especially good when you have leftover Mashed Potato Casserole because they are already seasoned and flavored up for ya and ready to go! I just love the contrast between the super creamy insides of these against the crunchy outside. So good!
Goes great as a side dish with simple roasted chicken or just plain, pan seared meats, but really anywhere you would normally serve potatoes. In other words, when you make mashed potatoes to go with that nice pot roast on Sunday, make enough that you have intentional leftovers because these are yummy!
