Even the leftover haters in your house will love these!
Achieving fantastic taste with minimal effort, these stuffing hash browns are a must-try. After all, the only way to make mashed potatoes and stuffing better is to fry them in butter and oil, right?
Here’s how to make them.
Ingredients:
- Leftover mashed potatoes and stuffing (Forming the hash browns will be easier if the leftovers are chilled!)
- Butter
- Olive Oil
Instructions:
- Combine equal parts mashed potatoes and stuffing in a large bowl. Depending on the consistency of your potatoes, you may need to tweak the ratios slightly. The idea is to get the mixture to stick together and not crumble.
- Take a handful of the potato-stuffing mixture and roll it into a ball slightly smaller than a tennis ball. If the mixture is sticking to your hands, keep a bowl of cold water handy and wet your hands before each forming each ball.
- Using the palms of your hands, press the potato balls into a disk shape about 1 inch thick. Place the disks on parchment paper until you’re ready to fry them.
- Heat equal parts olive oil and butter in a frying pan on medium-high heat. You want the pan sizzling, but not so hot that the butter starts to burn.
- Gently place the disks into the hot oil and fry them for about 3 minutes on each side (or long enough that the centers are hot after cooking).
Serve your stuffing hash browns with leftover gravy or cranberry sauce!
