2 cups mashed potatoes

1 egg, beaten

1/2 cup all-purpose flour

1/4 cup breadcrumbs

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/8 teaspoon black pepper

Vegetable oil, for frying

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 200 degrees F (93 degrees C).

In a large bowl, combine the mashed potatoes, egg, flour, breadcrumbs, salt, and pepper.

Mix well until all ingredients are combined.

Form the mixture into small patties, about 2 inches in diameter.

Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

Fry the potato cakes in batches for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.

Drain the potato cakes on paper towels.

Serve immediately or place on a baking sheet and bake in the oven for 10 minutes to crisp up.

Enjoy!
