Thanksgiving Leftover Potato Pancakes - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 cups mashed potatoes, cold
1 cup cooked turkey, chopped
1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
1 small onion, chopped
1 egg
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
salt and pepper (to taste)
vegetable oil (I use canola)
leftover gravy, heated

Preparation

Combine all ingredients except gravy & vegetable oil in mixing bowl. Using hands, combine ingredients until evenly distributed. Create patties, roughly 3\" circles, 1\" thick.
Cover the bottom of a frying pan with vegetable oil and heat on medium-high until oil is hot. Place patties in oil and fry til golden brown before turning over, about 3-4 minutes per side (I had the best success when I only put 2 in the pan at a time). Remove from pan onto plate lined with paper towels before transferring to plate for service. Ladle warm gravy over pancake and serve.
