👩🍳 Instructions
1️⃣ Make the dough
- Mash potatoes if not already done, and let them cool slightly.
- In a large bowl, combine mashed potatoes, flour, salt, baking powder, egg, and 2–3 tbsp oil.
- Mix until a soft, slightly sticky dough forms.
- Dust hands and surface with flour to handle the dough easily.
2️⃣ Shape the cakes
- Divide dough into 6–8 equal portions.
- Shape each into a round, slightly flattened cake (about 1/2 inch thick).
3️⃣ Fry the potato cakes
- Heat oil in a skillet (about 1/4 inch deep).
- Fry cakes over medium heat 3–4 minutes per side, until golden brown and crispy.
- Drain on paper towels.
4️⃣ Add toppings
- Brush with garlic butter, spread sour cream, and sprinkle cheese or herbs as desired.
- Serve immediately warm.
✨ Tips
- Use leftover mashed potatoes for convenience.
- Add a pinch of paprika or black pepper to the dough for extra flavor.
- Serve with savory or sweet toppings — even a dollop of jam works!
- For a lighter version, bake at 400°F / 200°C for 12–15 minutes instead of frying.
