Cheesy Potato Cakes

Last night, I made salisbury steak and we had about a cup of mashed potatoes left. So this morning, I made some yummy potato cakes with the leftovers. So good and makes a nice little breakfast. Or snack, or side dish. Because you know, potatoes. I love them.




Here's how I did it:

In a mixing bowl, mix leftover mashed potatoes (I had 1 cup) with a TBSP flour, a handful of shredded cheddar cheese, 1 egg white, and some Lawry's seasoned salt. Set aside.

Melt 1 TBSP ghee in skillet. Add a little diced yellow onion (about 1/4 of an onion) and cook over medium-low heat until tender, about 5 minutes. Add 1 clove of minced garlic and cook an additional 2 minutes, being careful not to burn the garlic.

Add the sauteed onion and garlic to potato mixture and mix well.

Add 2 TBSP of ghee to the skillet, increase heat to medium, and allow the ghee to heat up for a minute or two.

Shape potato mixture into little cakes and fry in ghee, each side about 2-3 minutes, until golden brown and heated through. The outsides will be crispy and the insides fluffy. Soooo good, ENJOY! 

NOTE: You can leave the cheese out if you want to go dairy-free! They will still be delicious!
