Classic Potato Cakes

Ingredients List

• 2 cups mashed potatoes

• 1 cup all-purpose flour

• 1 onion, diced

• 1 egg

• ½ teaspoon ground black pepper

• ½ teaspoon salt

• ½ cup vegetable oil, or as needed

Instructions

Gather all the ingredients needed for the recipe.

Combine mashed potatoes, flour, onion, egg, black pepper, and salt in a bowl, mixing until everything is fully incorporated and the mixture reaches a thick, batter-like consistency.

Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Spoon 4-inch rounds of batter into the hot oil and fry until golden brown, about 4 to 5 minutes per side.

Drain the potato cakes on paper towels and repeat with the remaining batter. Serve and enjoy!
