Great simple recipe. Made them with a package of Idahoan Buttery Mashed Potatos. Excellent!

I made these with about 1/2 cup leftover Thanksgiving turkey added to the mixture, and I made them about 2 inches in diameter. They were delicious but probably would have held together a bit better if I had used 2 eggs. Great way to use up those holiday leftovers!

I do similar except I put 2 eggs,also add 3/4 cup bread crumbs ,1 tsp dried basil and 1/2 tsp dried oregano

Usually cooks add butter and milk to the original for generic mashed potatoes, so my "upgrade" to the recipe would be to add a small bit of milk or cream to the potatoes, dip small patties into "Italian breadcrumbs", dust with paprika, and bake briefly in a hot toaster oven. You want a crisp crust, flavor from the breadcrumbs, and a creamy center. Delish !!

Delicious, and the best way to use leftover mashed potatoes in my opinion. I like to add chopped green onions and a little cheddar cheese in the mix.
