    Leftover Mashed Potato Pancakes Recipe

    An essential part of the culinary heritage of Pakistan is the celebration of food with family and friends embedded in the concept of ‘dawat’ (feast). And anyone who hosts a ‘dawat’ (feast) knows that there’s always leftovers to deal with. As delicious as Pakistani Dawats (feast) are, you can only have so much roasted meat and stuffing for a meal. Instead of having the same food for the next day, transform the dishes into new ones!

    Leftover Mashed Potato Pancakes

    Last week, we hosted a ‘Family Dinner’ and made the ‘Roasted Chicken with Mashed Potatoes. We usually use leftover roasted meat for a sandwich or rolls with the apricot or mint chutney (sauce), gravy and stuffing, but what about the mashed potatoes? Add some flour, egg and cheese and turn them into mashed potato pancakes! Great for breakfast, lunch, or as a side dish or light dinner . A Perfect way to enjoy leftover potatoes and the flavor combinations are endless!

    I love making these Potato Pancakes whenever I have leftover mashed potatoes so I don’t feel like I’m eating the same thing the next day. Serving size will change depending on how much mashed potatoes you have leftover. This works best with cold mashed potatoes.

    These are as easy to make as normal pancakes – just mix together the mashed potatoes, flour, eggs, cheese, green onions and seasoning. Then cook the batter in a large pan until golden brown.

    With their crispy exterior and creamy, cheesy center, there’s not much to dislike here. I recommend topping these with a sour cream or garlic mayo.

    Aslam-o-Alakaum My Lovelies !!

     In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

    Hope, you are doing splendidly and enjoying the season. Well I’m in the middle of work, and anxiety has begun to sink its sharp little claws into my brain. It’s almost the final month of my training and I’m already drowning under a sea of coding assignments and project.

    Ahhh I love to code even though it makes me want to tear my eyes out every 10 minutes. Crying Out Loud ;(  I have constant fears that I’ve forgotten the code, functions, or left something somewhere blah blah blah. Problem is I love it but I have too much code to write though… ugh. This assignment is really doing my nut in! 

    code

    I’ m carving chocolate soo bad while coding up my project and backing up files. Every time I write a code, I delete it again. Almost time for a pancake break 😛  Anyhow before going back to coding, I decided to update you guys with this short post. 

    If there’s one thing you should know about me right up front it’s that I love Chocolate and pancakes, always have. Chocolate chips, Pancakes, foggy weather and coding are the reasons I love life.  Sounds super yummy!

    It was love at first bite, I’m telling you. The texture is fluffy but hearty and slightly dense, and plenty moist from the butter. They’re perfectly sweet even without any additional sugar – the chocolate chips provide a touch of decadence.

    Tips For Diet Version Pancakes (Clean Eating):

    1. You can make gluten free Pancakes by using gluten-free oats and flour.
    2. For Sweeting: Add 1 Tablespoons of honey, apple syrup, or nectar is optional for extra sweetening, but I didn’t find it necessary.
    3. Don’t add butter. Mash very ripe banana with baking powder. It gives
    4. them a moist and fluffy texture.
    5. Serve plain or with a small drizzle of honey and a few additional chocolate chips for melting.
