Potato, Bacon and Sauerkraut Patties image

Try this for breakfast: creamy mashed potato, with tangy Sauerkraut and smoky bacon in a pattie! Adapted from a recipe on the Simply Great Recipes website. The original recipe is obviously an Edgell recipe and listed in the ingredients 1 cup (100g) Edgell Instant Mash. Zaar would not accept this as an ingredient, so I have replaced it with 2 cups of mashed potato. If you do track down - or regularly use - Edgell Instant Mash, the step now removed from the instructions is "In a medium bowl combine the Edgell Instant Mash and 1 1/4 cups of boiling water". To use canned instant mash would obviously be a time-saver! Depending on whether cream or milk has already been added to the mashed potato, you may like to add some in step 2.

Time 14m

Yield 6-8 patties, depending on size, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 teaspoon oil
3 slices bacon, chopped
1 onion, finely minced
2 cups mashed potatoes
1/2 tablespoon sour cream (your mashed potatoes may already be adequately creamy) (optional)
410 g edgell sauerkraut, well drained
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon brown sugar, to taste
1 teaspoon caraway seed
fresh ground pepper, to taste
salt, to taste (depends on how much salt has already been added to the potato and sauerkraut)
2 tablespoons oil, for cooking

Steps:

  • Heat 1 teaspoon of oil in a large (preferably non-stick) pan, add the bacon and cook for about a minute, then add the onions and cook for another minute, or until the onion is just beginning to soften. Put the pan aside for use later in cooking the patties.
  • In a medium-to-large bowl, combine the mashed potato, (optional) sour cream, the well-drained Edgell Sauerkraut, the egg, the cooked onion and bacon, the brown sugar, the caraway seeds and freshly ground black pepper, and (if necessary) salt, and mix well to combine all the ingredients.
  • Shape the mixture into 1/2 cup patties. Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in the pan used for cooking the bacon and onions, add the patties and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown.
  • Serve as part of a "big breakfast" or with barbecued sausages.
  • TIP: Chopped fresh herbs such as parsley or thyme can be added in step 2.

These patties were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I would have preferred to add some more moisture to the mixture, such as an egg or some milk.

I found these patties to be a bit too greasy. I think I would have preferred to bake them instead of frying them.

These patties were a great way to use up leftover bacon and sauerkraut. I also added some chopped onion and garlic to the mixture for extra flavor.

I've made these patties several times, and they're always a hit with my family and friends. I like to add a bit of diced bell pepper and jalapeno to the mixture for extra flavor.

I made these patties for a potluck, and they were gone in no time! Everyone loved them. I used a pre-made sauerkraut mix, and it worked perfectly. The bacon and potatoes added a nice crispy texture.
