This is a great basic recipe. They are great on their own or you can dress them up with anything you like. My kids like them way better than just plain mash potatoes. Sometimes I add bacon bits to mine and serve with sour cream or plain yogurt. They are like a loaded potato pancakes. Watch the consistency of your batter; depends on how thick you make your mash potatoes. If it is a bit runny you can do as some of the other reviewers suggest and added a little flour.

Great with spicy turkey meatballs! Easy simple sauce.
