📝 Preparation Steps

In a large bowl, combine the mashed potatoes, ½ cup of the flour, egg, chives, and sea salt.

egg, beaten1sea salt1 teaspoon

Use a spatula to mix the ingredients together to make the fritter batter. Add up to 2 extra tablespoons of the flour until your fritter batter is thick enough that it will stick together.

Then, use your hands to form 12 fritters. Pat them down so they look like small and thin burger patties. Place the formed fritters on a plate.

In a large nonstick skillet, heat up two tablespoons of the oil. Let it heat up for a few minutes over medium-high heat. Then, carefully place as many fritters as you can in the pan without them overlapping. You will probably need to cook them in two batches.

Let the fritters cook for about ⏱️ 5 minutes. Then, use a spatula to flip them over to cook for another ⏱️ 5 minutes.

The fritters should be golden brown on both sides when they are done.

Transfer the cooked fritters to a serving plate lined with paper towels and cook the second batch in the remaining two tablespoons of oil.

Serve the fritters hot with optional sour cream (for dipping).
