Ingredients

  • Leftover ground meat stew
  • mashed potatoes
  • 2 eggs, beaten with water to make an egg wash
  • bread crumbs or flour

Instructions

Step 1

Cup a small amount of mashed potatoes in your hand, make a well, fill with one spoonful of ground beef filling. Form a ball. Roll into the egg wash bowl then into the dried breadcrumbs bowl.

Step 2

Lower carefully into a deep fryer at 375 degrees F filled with canola oil or peanut oil. Since everything else is already cooked, you only need 10 to 15 seconds to brown the breadcrumbs.

Step 3

You may serve immediately or refrigerate. Warming up later in a microwave will work well.
