Best Recipe for Mashed Potato Polpetti (Patties)
Ingredients
- 3 cups mashed potatoes
- Grey salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan
- Flour, for dredging
- 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
- Leftover gravy
Instructions
- Re-season potatoes with salt and pepper, stir in cheese. Take a mayonnaise or peanut butter lid, line with plastic wrap to use as a mold. Pack the potato mixture into the lid, unwrap it and place the patty on a baking sheet. You may refrigerate them covered with plastic wrap until the next day, or fry immediately.
- To cook, dredge the patties in flour. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat, add patties. Just before frying, dredge the patties again with flour.
- Add the patties to the oil without crowding them (you may have to cook them in batches). Cook until underside is golden brown, about 5 minutes, flip and brown the other side. Remove from the skillet and drain on paper towels. Serve hot with leftover gravy.
