Instructions

  1. Peel and quarter your potatoes. Boil the potatoes in salted water until they are fork tender (about 12-15 minutes).
  2. Drain the potatoes and mash or mix them until they are free of any lumps, then mix in the sour cream, cream cheese, butter, and salt and pepper. Beat with a mixer until fluffy.
  3. Cover and refrigerate overnight or up to 3 days.
  4. To make the compound butter cut or mix in all of the ingredients with the softened butter until uniformly mixed. Place the butter on a sheet of plastic wrap and use the plastic wrap to form the butter into a log, about 1 inch thick. Wrap in the plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator.
  5. When you are ready to cook preheat your grill or smoker with Cooking Steel, or your griddle to medium-high heat, (about 400 degrees).
  6. Mix the Italian bread crumbs with the crumbled Parmesan cheese in a bowl or pan.
  7. Remove the chilled potatoes from the refrigerator. Scoop about ½ cup of mashed potatoes and form a round ball. Roll the potato ball in the breading and place on a cookie sheet or pan. Repeat with the remaining potatoes.
  8. Oil the griddle and working in batches place the potato ball on the flat top and press the ball down gently with a spatula to flatten slightly. Cook for about 1.5-2 minutes then flip the potato cake over.
  9. Cook the other side for about 1.5 minutes then top each Fried Mashed Potato Cake with about a tablespoon of the compound butter during the final 30 seconds of cooking.
  10. Remove and serve warm.
