Potato patties with mushrooms
Description
My mom taught me how to make potato patties with mushrooms at home. In our house, this dish was one of the most anticipated ones during mushroom season. We used chanterelles, boletus, and of course, white mushrooms in our patties, and the dish always turned out wonderfully delicious. Anyway, if you decide to use mushrooms like button mushrooms in this simple potato patty recipe, I think it will still turn out pretty good.

Step 5
Take a small piece of the prepared potato mixture (about the size of a chicken egg) and shape it into a flat patty. Place a bit of filling in the center of the patty, then bring together the edges of the potato mixture, sealing the filling inside and forming a ball. Repeat the same process with the remaining potato mixture.
