How to Make Swedish Sausage Potato Cakes
- Crumble 1 pound of well-seasoned raw pork sausage into a large skillet over medium heat. Brown the sausage, breaking it up with a spoon, for about 8-10 minutes.
- Drain off excess grease, reserving about 2 tablespoons of the drippings.
- In a large bowl, combine the browned sausage, 2 cups of firm leftover mashed potatoes, 1 large egg, and 1 tablespoon of the reserved sausage drippings. Season generously with salt and pepper to taste.
- Gently mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Shape the mixture into 4 patties. Optionally, coat each patty in ½ cup breadcrumbs for a crispier exterior.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of the reserved sausage drippings in the same skillet over medium heat. Fry the patties for 4-5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and heated through.
- Serve the Swedish Sausage Potato Cakes immediately, topped with your favorite Swedish mustard sauce.
