Ingredients
- 1 cup Cabbage (finely shredded)
- 1 cup Mashed potatoes (cold or room temperature)
- 1 large Egg
- 1/2 cup All purpose flour
- Salt (to taste)
- Pepper (to taste)
- Oil for frying (neutral oil)
- 1 cup grated Cheddar cheese
Instructions
- Combine the shredded cabbage, mashed potatoes, egg, flour, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Mix until evenly combined.
- Stir in the grated cheddar until well distributed.
- Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat until it shimmers. Use enough oil to coat the bottom of the pan.
- Form the mixture into patties about 2–3 inches across and place them in the hot oil.
- Cook until the bottoms are golden brown, about 3–4 minutes, then flip and cook the second side until golden and the cheese is melty, another 3–4 minutes.
- Remove the patties from the pan and let drain on paper towels for a minute. Serve warm.
Notes
For a vegetarian but egg-free option, replace the egg with a flax egg or aquafaba. If your cabbage is watery, press it in a clean towel before mixing.
