Ingredients

1 lb russet (baking) potato

2 large egg, beaten lightly

1-2 jalapeno, chopped fine

2/3 C. dry bread crumbs

8 kalamata olives, chopped fine

½ C. sharp cheddar cheese, grated

2 T. onion. chopped fine

garlic pepper to taste

vegetable oil

Directions

Peel potatoes, cut into ¾-inch pieces, and place on a rack in a saucepan over boiling water, steam covered, for 8 to 10 min, or until very tender.

Let the potato cool for 5 min, in a bowl mash it, and stir in peppers, olives, onion, egg, cheese and garlic pepper to taste.

Scoop the mixture by ¼ C. measures, form the scoops into ½“ thick cakes, and coat the cakes with the bread crumbs.

In a large heavy skillet heat the oil over moderately high heat until it is hot, but not smoking, and sauté the cakes, turning them once, for 4 min or until golden. Yield: 8 cakes.
