Fried Potato Cakes - The Southern Lady Cooks

Fried Potato Cakes are always a good idea and a wonderful way to use any leftover mashed potatoes. I know.. so many people say they never have any leftover but it you do.. try these delicious little treats. They are a wonderful appetizer or side dish!

Fried Potato Cakes Ingredients Needed:

Mashed Potatoes

Egg

Onion

Black Pepper

Garlic Powder

All Purpose Flour

Oil for frying

As you can see it doesn’t take much to make up these Fried Potato Cakes. Simple ingredients and easy to make. You can serve them with any kind of dipping sauce. Personally sour cream is our favorite and we add chives to the sour cream! I think Ranch Dressing or Honey Mustard is also a good addition.

“I am so happy to see this. I grew up in Nashville and my Mother always made potato cakes like this with leftover mashed potatoes. I live in the Midwest now and everyone thinks I am crazy!” – Mary

“I have lived in Indiana all of my life I can remember my parents making these out of left over mashed potatoes I loved them dearly. I haven’t had them for a long time but I have thought about making some this week end. Good simple down home food nothing better.” – Beverly
