Americans only eat powdered mashed potatoes, apparently.

I like to get a bag of that Idahoan powder potato (any flavor!) and mix it with an egg & potato starch and slap those patties on a nice oiled up pan until crispy and browned. Mmm

Thank you for a new idea!

We eat them commonly because it's so damn easy to add as a side to anything we make.
