Ingredients
    1 1/2 - 1 3/4 lbs potatoes, peeled and cut into 2-inch cubes
    boiling water
    2 tablespoons unsalted butter
    2 tablespoons fresh chives, minced
    1 tablespoon minced garlic
    1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
    salt
    pepper
    2 tablespoons fresh dill, minced
    2 tablespoons fresh parsley, minced
    4 ounces blue cheese, Cashel Blue preferred (about 1 cup)
    1 egg yolk
    2 eggs
    1/2 cup milk
    1 cup all-purpose flour
    1 - 1 1/2 cup seasoned bread crumbs
    1 - 1 1/2 cup canola oil
    sour cream
Preparation
    Cook potatoes in boiling water until tender, about 12-15 minutes.
    Drain and mash.
    Melt butter in a small skillet over low heat.
    Cook chives and garlic for 1-2 minutes, or until soft.
    Stir into potatoes.
    Add nutmeg, salt, pepper, dill and parsley.
    Cool potatoes completely.
    Stir in cheese and egg yolk. The cheese should still be in lumps throughout the potatoes.
    Shape into 12 patties.
    Refrigerate 10 minutes.
    Beat eggs and milk together.
    Dip patties in flour, then in egg mixture, and finally in bread crumbs.
    Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
    Cook patties until browned, 3-5 minutes on each side.
    Serve with a dollop of sour cream.
    These can be made in advance and reheated for a few minutes in a 250\u00b0F oven.
