These Parmesan Mashed Potato Cakes are so addictive! A crunchy, cheesy crust is hiding the soft, velvety mashed potato filling. They make a perfect side dish or a filling vegetarian meal.
Of all the new recipes I’ve made recently, these Parmesan Potato Cakes are one of the biggest hits in my kitchen. This recipe is simple, requires little ingredients, and yields delicious results. You MUST try these, friend.
I grew up eating Potato Cakes. I’ve tried so many variations of this tasty meal, but I finally found the one I am going to stick with. These Parmesan Cakes are just the best! Adding Parmesan cheese and fresh herbs brings so much flavor to the dish, and dipping the cakes in Parmesan before frying them makes the golden crust even tastier and crunchier. Let’s start cooking!
