My mother often made this recipe and probably grew up with it in the Appalachian area of Tennessee. She usually served it on Monday, making use of leftover mashed potatoes from Sunday dinner. We used to eat this topped with brown gravy.

My mother made these cakes often when we lived on the farm in rural Iowa. We grew potatoes in our garden & raised chickens so both were plentiful besides being an economical meal. My mother would include onions when cooking this as a dinner meal, but the onions were omitted when cooked for breakfast meal. I liked putting catsup over the hot patty while my brother liked putting the fried cake in a bread sandwich with mayonnaise.

These are fantastic! I pan fried them in some butter over medium high heat to nice them a nice crust, if my families lucky, I won't eat them all before dinner is served; )

Very good. My girls don't eat potatoes and they ate this! I made it even easier by just putting in a bit of onion flakes instead of the sauted onion in butter. I didn't have hot sauce so I sprinkled in a bit of cayenne pepper.

My husband could eat these potato cakes every other day. I sometimes make them for breakfast instead of the usual hash browns.
