Ingredients
- leftover mashed potatoes
- eggs (one per cup of mashed potatoes)
- flour as needed
- garlic and/or onion powder to taste
- bread crumbs
Directions
-
Mix the eggs, mashed potatoes, spices, and flour until the mixture is firm enough to handle gently. Pat them into a patty or roll them into a cylinder, then lay on a plate covered with wax paper. Refrigerate an hour if you have time.
-
Heat a thin layer of oil and fry the croquettes, about 5 minutes on each side. They should be browned and crispy on the outside, soft on the inside.
