Get Creative with Leftovers: Bubble and Squeak Recipe

I'm excited to kick off today's tutorial where we'll dive into the heartwarming world of bubble and squeak. If you're wondering what to do with those leftover veggies and potatoes from your holiday feast, this recipe is the answer.

Firstly, I'm going to plunge into the details of this classic British dish. Bubble and squeak is traditionally made with leftover mashed potatoes and vegetables, usually cabbage or Brussels sprouts. It's called bubble and squeak because that's the sound it makes while cooking. Isn't that fun?

Moving on, let me share the secret to making the best bubble and squeak. The key is to use a hot frying pan with plenty of oil or butter. This will ensure that the potatoes and veggies get crispy and golden brown. You want that delicious crunch in every bite.

Now, let's talk about the ingredients. You'll need leftover mashed potatoes, cabbage or Brussels sprouts, onion, and some herbs and spices like thyme, paprika, and black pepper. Don't worry, I'll provide a detailed shopping list later on, so you can easily find these ingredients on Amazon.

Start by heating up the frying pan and adding the chopped onion. Cook it until it's soft and translucent. Then, add the cabbage or Brussels sprouts and cook them until they are tender. Next, add the mashed potatoes and seasonings. Mix everything together until well combined.

Now comes the fun part – shaping the mixture into patties. You can make them as big or as small as you like. Heat some oil or butter in the frying pan and carefully place the patties in the pan. Cook them for a few minutes on each side until they are golden brown and crispy.

Serve your bubble and squeak patties hot with your favorite condiments or enjoy them on their own. They are a delicious and satisfying way to use up your leftover ingredients.
