British Bubble and Squeak (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
→ Base Ingredients
01 -
1/2 cup onion, diced finely
02 -
1 cup cooked vegetables you have left over (chop roughly; carrots, peas, cabbage, or Brussels sprouts work great)
03 -
2 cups mashed potatoes you didn’t finish
→ Fats & Seasonings
04 -
Salt and a good amount of freshly ground pepper to suit your taste
05 -
2 tablespoons olive oil
06 -
2 tablespoons butter
# Instructions:
01 -
Toss the mashed potatoes, diced onions, and leftover chopped veggies in a big bowl. Stir everything around until it's all evenly combined.
02 -
In a large frying pan set over medium heat, melt the butter and olive oil together. Once the mixture is bubbling and hot, you're ready to go!
03 -
Spread the potato blend into a single, flat layer in your pan. Leave it alone to cook for 10 to 15 minutes, long enough to form a crispy, golden layer on the bottom.
04 -
Flip the mixture gently (don’t stress over it breaking!) and let it cook another 5 to 10 minutes until both sides are perfectly golden-brown and crunchy.
05 -
Sprinkle on some salt and pepper until it tastes just right. Share while it’s still fresh and crispy!
# Notes:
01 -
This traditional dish from Britain is a simple way to make use of leftover veggies and mashed potatoes.
02 -
Cabbage is often the go-to choice, but feel free to try it with any extra cooked vegetables you happen to have.
