Directions
-
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground cooked beef, mashed potatoes, minced onion, sage, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly distributed.
-
Add the beaten eggs to the mixture and stir gently until the mixture holds together when pressed. If the mixture is too dry, add a splash of milk; if too wet, add a little more flour or potato.
-
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions. Shape each portion into a flat, round cake or patty, about half an inch thick.
-
Lightly dredge each patty in flour, shaking off any excess. This helps create a crispy crust during frying.
-
Heat the butter or oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the patties to the skillet.
-
Cook the patties for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and heated through. Adjust heat as necessary to prevent burning.
-
Transfer cooked patties to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess fat. Serve immediately while hot.
