Tortas de Papa, or potato patties, are a savory dish rooted in Mexican cuisine. Made primarily from mashed potatoes, they're seasoned with ingredients like onion, garlic, and fresh herbs, then shaped into patties and pan-fried until golden and crispy. Often bound together with eggs and a bit of flour, they may also include cheese or vegetables for added flavor. These patties are typically served with salsa, fresh greens, or a side of beans. Tortas de Papa are naturally vegetarian and rich in carbohydrates for energy, though their nutritional profile can vary depending on the frying oil and added ingredients. For a healthier version, they can be baked instead of fried, lowering the fat content. A versatile comfort food, they’re as satisfying as they are delicious.
