It did not stick together. It was to mushy. I turned it into a cheese mash.

My Mom made these when I was a kid 50+ years ago! I add some caramelized onions and garlic to them, but use your imagination and make them your own! Cheese inside and/or out, chives, parsley, mushrooms, bacon, sour cream, a little Paprika. These make a great side dish to most any meal, or they can be enjoyed on their own. Sometimes, I will 'flatten' them a little for more crispness and serve with sour cherries over top, served with a breaded pork loin chop, glazed carrots, and a salad! Hint: You don't 'have' to fry these either! Just put the mix in a small casserole dish, sprinkle with cheese and bake for 30 minutes.

When I mash the potatoes, I add sour cream anyway. I fried the pancakes in 1 T salted butter and 1 T olive oil. Nothing else is needed except some leftover turkey and cranberry sauce!

I like add baccon biy's ans serve with eggs over easy for breakfast. Poached eggs are also good.

I often make these but add green onions and serve with sour cream.
