Ingredients
- 3 medium (approximately 600g) Russet potatoes
- 250 grams Ground sausage
- 0.5 medium (finely chopped) Onion
- 1 large Egg
- 3 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon (adjust to taste) Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Breadcrumbs
- 3 tablespoons (for frying) Vegetable oil
- 2 tablespoons (optional, for garnish) Chopped parsley
Directions
Step 1
Peel and dice the russet potatoes into small chunks. Place them in a pot of salted water and bring to a boil. Cook until the potatoes are fork-tender, about 10-12 minutes. Drain thoroughly.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, mash the cooked potatoes until smooth. Let them cool slightly while you prepare the other ingredients.
Step 3
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground sausage until browned and fully cooked, breaking it into small pieces with a spatula. Add the finely chopped onion to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Step 4
Add the cooked sausage and onion mixture to the mashed potatoes. Stir in the egg, all-purpose flour, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix until all ingredients are well combined.
Step 5
Scoop about 1/4 cup of the mixture into your hands and shape it into a patty about 3/4 inch thick. Repeat with the remaining mixture to form 8-10 patties.
Step 6
Place the breadcrumbs in a shallow dish. Lightly coat each patty in the breadcrumbs, pressing gently to ensure even coverage.
Step 7
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, fry the patties in batches, cooking for 3-4 minutes per side or until golden brown and crisp. Transfer the cooked patties to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Step 8
Serve the sausage potato patties hot, garnished with chopped parsley if desired. Pair them with a dollop of sour cream, ketchup, or your favorite dipping sauce for extra flavor.
