good for leftover mashed potatoes

Ingredients

  • 1 lb green or savoy cabbage, thinly sliced/shredded
  • 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
  • 6 T butter
  • 1 lb mashed potatoes, can be left-over
  • 2 pn salt and pepper, to taste
  • 4 eggs

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). In large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat and add the onions with a good pinch of salt. Cook, stirring, until soft, then add the cabbage. Cook for an additional 15 minutes until the cabbage is tender.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the mashed potatoes with the cabbage mixture, stirring thoroughly to combine. Adjust the seasoning, then mold into 4 patties.
  3. Heat the remaining butter in the same skillet and fry the patties until brown. Transfer to an oven-proof dish and heat through in the oven as the patties come off the skillet. Multiple skillets can be used to expedite things.
  4. When all the patties are in the oven, fry 4 eggs in butter. Serve with freshly cracked black pepper.
