GRANNY'S KITCHEN: Potato Cakes

This recipe is called Mrs. Ireland Potato Cakes. I received it from a Marlene on one of my Yahoo groups.


Start with 1 1/2 cups mashed left over mashed potatoes.  I used a a couple tablespoons more because I was using up an extra pint from the Colonials that we had.

 The next step is to add a cup of rolled oats and a teaspoon of salt.  Also add softened butter. Use 2T to 1/4 cup depending on how thin your potatoes are.
I used only 2T in my batch.


Mix into a dough then pat out onto a floured surface.  Then using a biscuit cutter, cut out into patties.  As you can see, I use a regular sized canning lid for my biscuit cutter!  This works perfectly!


Fry in additional butter.


Turn over and continue frying until golden brown.
Serve warm.
