Servings 4
Instructions
- Combine the leftover dressing with the egg. Press together until somewhat sticky.
- Using a circle such as a biscuit cutter or a drinking glass, cut a 3-inch circle that's approximately 1 inch thick. You can also form individual patties with your hands.
- Heat 2 tbsp butter in a large skillet. Add the dressing patties to the skillet and fry for 4 minutes on each side over medium-high heat.
Notes
- Uniformed sized patties will cook at the same rate.
- Make sure the butter is melted and hot in the skillet so the patties will form a crust and not just absorb the butter.
- Don't crowd the skillet. These cook quickly so it doesn't take long to have them all cooked up in a jiffy.
- Cook over medium-high heat.
- If it's too hot they will burn and not get warm in the center.
- If it's not high enough, it will be difficult to get that crispy exterior.
- When freezing the patties, allow them to cool completely before adding them to an airtight container. Otherwise, the exterior will not be crispy.
- Frozen Fried Dressing Patties don't have to be thawed.
- Just pop them into the microwave for a couple of minutes or let them sit in the refrigerator (plan ahead method).
- You can re-crisp prevously fried patties by adding them back to a hot skillet with a little melted butter or placing them briefly under the broiler.
