My Mom made these at least once a week. We were a family of 8 kids and 2 parents. I loved them and also like corned beef ash made from the tin of corned beef onions and mashed potatoes. Yummy
Hi Peter,
Had a craving for meat cakes tonight here in Indio California. They were awesome and just like I remembered them! I served them with green beans as they are very available here. Then I set out a dish of bread and butter pickles…awesome me son…
Da wife is going to hang on to me for another day..lol
Thx again
Dan from Clarenville..
I made them a couple weeks ago as well. Prefer the old fashioned green tomato pickles, or as I see it called now, chow, but gotta have some kind!
Will try this with leftover roast beef. I overcooked it in the sous vide so it will mash up well.
Good luck, not sure it’ll have the same effect as the corned beef has a fat content that helps it cook!
