Default Leftover mashed potatoes ???

Tonight, I made 'dutch relish' for dinner. Dutch relish is basically a
thickened hamburger soup served over mashed potatoes. So now I have a
big batch of leftover mashed potatoes. Anyone have suggestions what to
do with leftover mashed potatoes? There are always latkes, potato
pancakes and croquettes and the like. Is there a sweet instead of a
savory recipe? I don't know of any.

I've heard of potato doughnuts. I have no personal recipe
though,sorry.

Another savory idea is to make Skordalia, the garlicky Greek mezze
spread. Or as a topping to Shepherd's Pie?

Good luck,
Kris

Don't know of anything sweet.

Salmon pie and shepherd's pie / country pie are a couple other uses for
MP.

Add some crumbled bacon, sautéed celery and milk -- potato soup! You
could also add butter, sour cream, minced green onion, dill weed, cooked
diced waxy potato for texture contrast, etc.

I don't have anything to add, other than to say "make pork chops and
reheat them as a side"..... but I would be most grateful if you posted
the recipe for the Dutch Relish.

Sky, google potato candy. The recipe below came from Cooks.com, but
I'll bet there are others. This is actually very good, but incredibly
rich.

Ruth


POTATO CANDY

1/2 cup mashed potatoes
powered sugar
peanut butter


Combine 1/2 cup mashed potatoes and power sugar till is firm enough to
roll. The mixture will become very wet; just keep adding powdered
sugar. roll out on powdered sugar like noodles. Cover with peanut
butter. Roll into jelly roll cut into small pieces. Very rich!

Until you find sometrhing you may like for them, you can save the
spuds quite well by simply plopping ice cream scoops of them onto a
cookie sheet for fastest freeze, then put each "ball" into a zip-lock
so as to be able to use in parts.

Potato fudge but most recipes call for either instant, baked or boiled.

How about :
Potato scones, freezing them for the next time you do a cooked breakfast ?
Bubble + Squeak (you'll need some cooked cabbage) (Or the Irish version
Colcannon) ?
Topping for Fish Pie ?
I've also used mashed potatoes in a bread machine made loaf but I can't
remember what it was called

I used to know about some candy ball thing that had a base of mashed
potatoes. It got dipped in chocolate. Maybe akin to a fake Mounds bar?
Not sure. Long ago. Have you googled?

Personally, I'd thin it out and fake my way to clam chowder. I don't
care for potato patties.

As posted before...

I'd make rissoles or similar on the lines of Chicken Pojarski. Here is
my recipe.

Chicken Pojarski
(can also be transliterated as Pojarsky, Pozharsky, etc.; Pojarski, who
invented this dish, was an innkeeper in Torzhok, Russia in 1820's.)

500 g (about 1.1 lb) chicken flesh (chicken breasts are often used, but
the original recipe called for the whole boneless and skinless
chicken; If I use chicken breasts, I sometimes add some skin
for better flavour. Chicken thighs, especially boneless for
easier handling, are very good)
2 eggs, separated and the whites beaten a bit
salt and pepper to taste
200 g (about 0.4 lb) stale white bread, torn and soaked in water (or in
milk or cream) and squeezed out
1 cup dried breadcrumbs
about 2 tablespoons clarified butter (or even ghee) for frying

Put chicken flesh and white bread through the mincer/grinder. In a
dish, mix everything well together with egg yolks and whites. Add salt
and pepper to taste and mix well again. If the mixture is too dense,
add some ice-cold water and mix well again. Form into oblong-shaped
cakes, using about 1 heaped tablespoon or a bit more of mixture for
each. Roll them in breadcrumbs, flatten them to about 1 - 1.5-inch
thickness and pan-fry in butter (or ghee) over medium heat for 4-5
minutes on each side till golden-brown. Don't overcook them. Serve
with mashed potatoes, or chips (french-fried potatoes), or peas, or
buckwheat kasha, or green vegetables, or cauliflower, or any combination
of the above.

Variations: Add sour cream (50-75 g) (1.8-2.6 oz) mixed with finely
minced garlic (3-4 cloves) to the mixture before frying (that's what I
usually do). Or add some dill to the mixture. Or make Chicken
'Uzbekiston' (sic): pound a chicken fillet very flat; put some more
chicken breast meat through the grinder together with some onions; add
to the mixture some minced cashew nuts, salt, pepper, butter, and egg,
and mix well. Put the mixture in the centre of the flattened fillet and
roll the flesh round it, so that the mixture is sealed inside the
fillet. Secure it with some toothpicks if necessary. Roll in
breadcrumbs and pan-fry in hot clarified butter or ghee.

Thanks for all the wonderful suggestions folks! I never would've
considered shepherd's pie (will have to try that!) the other ideas
y'all've suggested! Potato doughnuts, potato soup, potato candy or
fudge, scones, bubble & squeek, potato bread(s), and piroghi (sp?)
And to Victor, thanks for the "Chicken Pojarski" recipe - saved for
future use! Thanks ever so much, y'all!

Heh! That was sweet of you! Sorry about the mix-up! I somehow managed
to select the "wrong" rissoles recipe from my archive. Here is the
"right" version, also posted previously.

The following is better made with freshly-prepared mashed potatoes, but
will work with leftover ones, too.

Finely mince or grind some boiled, fried, or roasted meat or chicken and
mix it with some finely minced fried onions, salt and pepper. Form
patties, or rather flat rissoles, out of mashed potatoes, make a well in
the centre of each one and fill it with the meat. Close the well,
optionally paint the rissoles with an egg yolk, roll in some flour and
fry them in butter or oil on both sides until golden brown. Serve with
mushroom sauce. You can also use fried mushrooms and onions, mince them
finely and use them as a filling, and serve the rissoles either with
mushroom sauce or with sour cream. Of course, you can omit the filling
altogether, but the result is not nearly as interesting or tasty.

You can make a version of 'Himmel und Erde', a German dish of potatoes
and apples. Usually made with freshly-cooked potatoes and apples, it
does work with leftover potatoes and cooked apples. Mash them together,
season with salt and pepper, pinch of cinnamon optional. Serve with
fried sausages.

Or you can make a Dutch dish known as 'stamppot'. That is cooked
vegetables mashed with potatoes.

There are cake recipes around that include mashed potatoes and fishcakes
can be made with mashed potatoes added.
