Steps:
- NOTE: USE "IDAHO SPUDS" BRAND INSTANT MASHED POTATOES FOR BEST RESULTS (THEIR POTATOES HAVE A BETTER TEXTURE AND FRESHER FLAVOR). IF YOU PLAN ON USING ANY OTHER SEASONINGS IN PLACE OF Recipe #453973 -- USE SPARINGLY TO AVOID OVER-SALTING (TASTE THE DRY MIX UNTIL SEASONING IS WELL-BALANCED). FOR LARGER POTATO CAKES, PREPARE 4 PATTIES INSTEAD OF 6. THESE MAY BE SERVED WITH A SMALL DOLLOP OF LIGHT SOUR CREAM.
- INTO a medium mixing bowl, add the potato flakes, baking powder, chives, Recipe #453973, and onion powder; MIX until combined.
- POUR one cup water to a small microwave-safe bowl; ADD the butter and heat in a microwave oven until butter is completely melted, but water is not boiling.
- REMOVE water/butter mixture from microwave and stir in the sour cream.
- WHEN the sour cream is blended in, whisk in the beaten eggs until smooth.
- POUR the water/dairy mixture over the potato mixture in medium bowl.
- STIR mixture with a fork until just blended (do not over-stir!).
- ALLOW mixture to sit for 5 minutes; DIVIDE mixture into 6 equal portions; SHAPE into patties without over-handling or pressing (they don't have to look perfect).
- FRY in a little oil or butter over medium heat until golden brown and crisp on both sides.
- SERVE and enjoy!

FRIED POTATO CAKES
A great way to use leftover mashed potatoes. It does not take much to make enough to serve 4 people so save your leftover potatoes even the instant will do but regular potatoes are best.

Steps:
- 1. In medium size bowl, beat the egg. Add the cold potatoes, chopped onion, flour and seasonings. Mix well. If mixture seems too thick, add a small amount of milk to make mixture the consistence of peanut butter (thick, not as runny as pancake batter). 2. Put approximately 1/4 cup oil in large skillet over medium heat and allow to heat pan before adding the mixture. When heated, use a serving spoon and drop a spoonful of mixture into the hot oil. Leave a little space between each to allow browning and make it easier to turn each one over. 3. As each one browns on bottom, turn over and brown the other side. Do not rush the browning so the inside will have sufficient time to cook throughly. Medium to dark brown is best. 4. Remove from oil and place on paper towels to drain. Serve warm.

Tips:
- For the best results, use russet potatoes. They are starchy and have a high moisture content, which makes them ideal for making potato cakes.
- Make sure to grate the potatoes finely. This will help them cook evenly.
- If you don't have a food processor, you can grate the potatoes by hand using a box grater.
- Be sure to squeeze out as much moisture as possible from the grated potatoes. This will help prevent the potato cakes from being soggy.
- When forming the potato cakes, be gentle. Over-handling will make them fall apart.
- Cook the potato cakes over medium heat. This will help them cook evenly without burning.
- Serve the potato cakes immediately with your favorite toppings.
