This is exactly how I use up my leftover mashed potatoes.   I usually have about 2 cups of potatoes leftover, and only use 1/2 cup of flour mixed with egg and chopped onion.   I do not flour my potato cakes before frying in either bacon grease, or a combo of oil and butter.   If I decide to add cheese, I form the potato cake around a piece of Velveeta before frying.

A friend of mine used to make these...she called them "fadges" and how appropriate so close to St Pat's day!  However, a "fadge" is much closer to a flatbread than a pancake!  She was such a fun loving person and never professed to being a cook so we savored her "fadges"!  Or perhaps that is what she learned from her family!

This sounds so much like the potato patties made for St. Patrick's Day!

Thanks for posting, I'm going to try making them this weekend
