In a large bowl, combine mashed potatoes with cooked bacon, cheddar, chives,
and garlic powder, and season with salt and pepper. Stir until all ingredients are
incorporated.
1-Place eggs and panko in separate shallow bowls. Use a small cookie scoop to
scoop 1” to 2” balls of mashed potato mixture. Roll into a ball in your hands,
then dredge first in egg and then in panko. Repeat until all mashed potatoes are
used.
2-Heat 3” of oil in a large cast iron skillet until candy thermometer reads 375°F. Fry
potato balls in batches until golden on all sides, 2-3 mins. Drain on a paper
towel lined plate and season immediately with more salt.
