Potato cakes are a savory dish made from cooked potatoes, typically mashed or grated, mixed with ingredients like flour, eggs, and seasoning, then shaped into patties and pan-fried or baked. Commonly enjoyed in various cuisines, they are particularly popular in Irish, British, and American recipes, often served as a breakfast side or snack. Their basic ingredients make them a versatile and filling option, providing energy-rich carbohydrates from the potatoes. Depending on preparation, they may also include herbs for added flavor and nutrients. While potato cakes can be a good source of potassium and vitamin C, their healthiness largely depends on cooking methods; frying in oil can increase their fat content. Opting for baking or using minimal oil can make them a lighter option. Customizable and satisfying, potato cakes are a comforting dish with a balance of simplicity and flavor.
