Irish Potato Cakes
I added a few cloves freshly minced garlic plus dried garlic powder and onion powder, and also put some orange cheddar in the mix with some dried parsley flakes and a few dashes of hot sauce. I ate almost half of the cakes when they were out of the oven, and I loved it. A very creative way to use leftover potatoes.

Sounds good but wondering if you use mashed potatoes flakes or real mashed potatoes. And if flakes are they cooked up first?

The recipe calls for real mashed potatoes. If you are going to use flakes, you should cook it up first for sure. Then follow the recipe to make these delicious potato pancakes.
