Step 1

If you are using leftover mashed potatoes, then you can skip this step

Step 2

Bring a large pan of salted water to a boil and add your potatoes for approximately 10 minutes, your potatoes should be soft but not too soft. Drain all the water from the potatoes, mash them until they are smooth, and set them aside to cool

Step 3

Add your mashed potatoes to a large bowl, then add baking powder, all purpose flour, scallions, sweetcorn kernels, peas, grated cheese, smoked paprika, garlic powder, beaten egg, and kosher salt and pepper. Stir to combine

Step 4

Divide your potato mixture equally and use your hands to form balls, then squash them into patty shapes. Heat olive oil on medium heat in a large nonstick skillet (frying pan), then add the fritter batter to the hot oil. Fry each side for 2-3 minutes until they are golden brown. Depending on the size of your skillet, you may have to repeat the process until all of your potato fritters are cooked. Once cooked, place your crispy potato fritters on kitchen paper towels to soak up excess moisture. Enjoy your delicious potato fritters!
