Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to fry mashed potato cutlets in a frying pan? Wash and peel the potato tubers.

Step 2

Step 2
To make the potatoes cook faster, cut each tuber in half.

Step 3

Step 3
Pour cold water into the pan and let the potatoes cook.

Step 4

Step 4
Foam will form in the pan as it cooks. I always remove it with a slotted spoon. Salt the water. And cook the potatoes until done. It took me about twenty minutes.

Step 5

Step 5
Check the potatoes for doneness with a knife at the thickest part. Drain the water. I added potato seasoning to the tubers. Seasonings can be varied: dried herbs, smoked paprika, garlic, even curry.

Step 6

Step 6
Using a potato masher, mash the potatoes. There should be no lumps left so that they can be felt in the finished dish. I advise you to taste the puree at this stage. And if there is such a need, then add salt and seasonings.

Step 7

Step 7
Beat in the egg. Then add flour to the puree a little at a time. Letʼs say, first half of the specified amount. And mix thoroughly, assessing the consistency.

Step 8

Step 8
Then add a little more flour until the mixture becomes viscous enough to form into cutlets.

Step 9

Step 9
Form small cutlets and roll them in breadcrumbs on all sides. I wet my hands lightly with water to prevent the dough from sticking as much. All that remains is to fry the cutlets over medium heat in a frying pan with sunflower oil until a crispy golden crust forms.
