150g leftover cooked Brussels sprouts, finely sliced
100g leftover cooked stuffing, finely chopped or crumbled
50g leftover cooked cabbage
1 garlic clove, grated
1 tsp grated ginger
splash of Tabasco
100g leftover cooked sausages, finely chopped
100g leftover roast turkey meat, shredded or finely chopped
50g cheese, grated (any kind)
2 tbsp bread sauce or mayonnaise
1 tbsp chopped herbs (coriander, parsley or chives all work well)
3 tbsp plain flour
3 tbsp semolina flour (or use an extra 2 tbsp plain flour)
1 tbsp toasted sesame oil
2 tbsp rapeseed oil or leftover turkey drippings, plus extra for moulding

Method

  1. Mash the potatoes in a bowl using a potato masher or fork. Add the carrots/ swede, sprouts and stuffing and mash together. Stir in the cabbage and season. Stir in the garlic, tabasco, ginger, sausages, turkey, cheese and bread sauce/mayo and combine together.
  2. In a separate bowl, mix the flour
  3. Lightly oil hands and shape the patties from the mixture (add more bread sauce if just crumbling). Lightly dust with flour and flatten a little.
  4. The mixture should result in 6-8 patties. Heat the oils in a heavy bottomed pan over a medium heat. Fry the patties for 2-3 mins until they have a golden crust, before flipping over and continuing on the other side for a few minutes.
  5. Transfer the fried patties to a baking tray and place in the oven for 5 mins until crispy and golden on the outside.
