These stuffed potato cakes are made with a soft mashed potato dough filled with a savory mixture of ground meat and mushrooms. They are pan-fried to a golden brown and make a satisfying meal or snack.

Ingredients

  • 650g potatoes, peeled and chopped
  • 1 small egg
  • 2.5 tbsp corn flour
  • 2.5 tbsp plain flour
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tbsp olive oil for frying
  • 1 tbsp olive oil (for filling)
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 125g ground meat (pork or turkey)
  • 100g mushrooms, finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp parsley, finely chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste (for filling)

Instructions

  1. Boil the potatoes in salted water until tender. Drain and mash with butter, then cool completely.
  2. Add the egg, corn flour, and plain flour to the mashed potatoes. Season with salt and pepper and mix until dough forms.
  3. Prepare the filling: Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a pan, add the onion and cook until soft. Add the ground meat and cook until browned. Add mushrooms and cook until moisture evaporates. Season with salt, pepper, and parsley. Set aside to cool.
  4. Divide the potato dough into 8 portions. Flatten each into a disc, place some filling in the center, then shape into a ball and flatten gently into a patty.
  5. Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat. Fry the cakes in batches for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown.
  6. Serve hot with your favorite sauce or salad.

Notes

  • Make sure the mashed potatoes are completely cooled before adding other ingredients.
  • Use leftover mashed potatoes to save time.
  • You can use ground chicken, pork, or turkey for the filling.
  • These cakes can be reheated in a skillet or oven.
