Mashed potato balls
Time: 30 mins | Difficulty: 2/5 | Recommendation: Lunch or snack
Ever end up with too many mashed potatoes left over from Thanksgiving or another holiday?? Try rolling them into a ball and frying them! It’s a delicious snack or meal, and could also work as a game day appetizer or snack to share. You could also make mashed potatoes from scratch specifically for this—just sure it’s cold when you’re shaping the balls, so they hold their shape.
Ingredients:
Mashed potato
An egg, whisked
Breadcrumbs
Vegetable oil
Method:
Make little balls with your mashed potato.
Place the egg into one bowl, and breadcrumbs in the other. Dip a potato ball in the egg first, then roll it around in the breadcrumbs. Then back in the egg, and again in the breadcrumbs.
Heat vegetable oil in a pan and fry the balls until golden brown, flipping as needed.
