👩🍳 Instructions
Prepare the Filling:
In a skillet, cook ground meat with onion until browned. Season with salt, pepper, and Worcestershire sauce. Remove from heat and stir in shredded cheese. Let cool slightly.
-
Make the Potato Dough:
In a large bowl, mix mashed potatoes, egg, flour, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. The mixture should be firm enough to shape—add more flour if needed. -
Assemble the Patties:
-
Take a small handful of the potato mixture and flatten it into a round disc.
-
Place about 1 tablespoon of the meat-cheese filling in the center.
-
Fold the edges over and shape into a patty, sealing the filling inside.
-
Dust lightly with flour.
-
-
Coat and Fry:
-
Dip each patty in beaten egg, then coat with breadcrumbs.
-
Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat.
-
Fry patties 3–4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crisp.
-
Drain on paper towels.
-
-
Serve:
Serve warm with sour cream, ranch dressing, or spicy mayo on the side.
✨ Tips
-
You can use leftover mashed potatoes — just ensure they’re firm, not too creamy.
-
Add chopped green onions, jalapeños, or bacon bits to the filling for extra flavor.
-
To make it healthier, you can air fry at 375°F for 12–15 minutes, flipping halfway.
