Ingredients
- 1 lb potato scrubbed clean, Yukon gold variety
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 2-3 tablespoons cream half and half or milk
- 3 lices Bacon cooked and chopped
- 1/2 cup cheddar cheese shredded sharp
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 egg
- 6 oz crispy onions container, French's brand
- vegetable oil for frying
Instructions
- Cut the potatoes into 1-inch chunks. Place in a pot and cover with water. Place over high heat and bring to a boil. Boil until the potatoes are fork tender, about 10 minutes. Drain and return to the pot. Add the butter and mash the potatoes with a potato masher. Start adding the cream, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the potatoes are smooth and creamy. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Transfer the potatoes to a bowl, cover and refrigerate until completely cold.
- When the potatoes are cold, add the bacon, cheese, flour and egg and stir to combine. If the mixture is really loose, you can add a bit more flour. Use a medium scoop and scoop the potatoes to a parchment lined baking sheet. With wet hands, lightly flatten the balls. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Lightly crush or chop the French's Crispy Onions and place in a shallow bowl.
- Place a large skillet over medium heat and add enough oil to coat the bottom of the skillet.
- Carefully take one of the potato pancakes and coat with the onions. You may need to use a spatula or wet hands, as the dough may be sticky.
- Working in batches, fry the dough until crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper towel lined plate and allow to drain and cool slightly.
- Serve warm.
Notes
- Leftover mashed potatoes may be subbed for the freshly made potatoes. You may need to alter the amount of flour or eggs you use if leftover mashed potatoes are used.
