Ingredients

Units Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 3 cups mashed potatoes
  • 1.5 cups corned beef (roughly chopped or torn)
  • 1/4 cup green onions (finely diced)
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 cup seasoned breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp pepper

For Frying

  • Neutral oil for frying (about 2 tbsp per batch)

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a large bowl, mix together the mashed potatoes, corned beef, green onions, egg, seasoned breadcrumbs, salt, garlic powder, and pepper until well combined.
  2. Form Patties: Take a small handful of the mixture, approximately 1/4 to 1/3 cup, and shape it into flat patties. Place them on a platter and cover with plastic wrap.
  3. Chill Patties: Refrigerate the patties for at least one hour. This resting time helps them firm up, making them easier to cook without falling apart.
  4. Preheat Pan: After chilling, heat a large frying pan over medium-low heat. Add about 2 tablespoons of neutral oil to the pan.
  5. Cook Patties: Place the patties in the pan carefully and cook for 5 minutes on each side or until they turn golden brown. Avoid flipping them too frequently as they are delicate and can break apart.
  6. Repeat Cooking: Continue frying the remaining patties in batches, adding more oil if necessary.
  7. Serve: Once all patties are cooked, sprinkle a little extra salt if desired and serve topped with your favorite accompaniments such as poached eggs, sour cream, or sauerkraut.

Notes

  • These patties are a fantastic way to repurpose leftover St. Patrick’s Day corned beef and mashed potatoes.
  • You can substitute boiled potatoes mashed fresh if mashed potatoes are unavailable.
  • Toppings such as a poached egg, sour cream, or sauerkraut complement these patties beautifully.
  • Be gentle when flipping the patties to prevent them from breaking apart.
