Leftover Turkey Fritters
Ingredients
1 cup
leftover mashed potatoes
1 cup
leftover stuffing or dressing
2 cups
shredded leftover roasted turkey
3 cloves
garlic, finely minced
½ cup
finely chopped onion
1
egg, beaten
¾ oz.
fresh Italian parsley, stems discarded, finely chopped
¼ tsp.
cayenne pepper
- freshly ground Kowalski's California Sea Salt and Black Peppercorns, to taste
¼ cup (approx.)
flour
- canola oil, for frying
- leftover cranberry sauce, cranberry relish or gravy, for serving
Directions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine first 10 ingredients (through salt and pepper); mix until well blended.
- Add flour as needed so mixture is not too sticky. Shape into 8 evenly sized patties about ½" thick.
- Transfer patties to a baking sheet; chill for 30 min.
- In a medium nonstick skillet, heat about 1 tbsp. oil until shimmering but not smoking.
- Add ½ of the fritters to the pan; cook on first side until golden-brown (about 4 min.).
- Add additional oil; flip fritters. Cook until second side is golden-brown (about 4 min.).
- Repeat with remaining fritters.
- Serve warm with cranberry sauce.
