The other day, when I was preparing Chicken Patties, I thought about extra ingredients to add. I always add Onion OR Spring Onion, sometimes add Carrot, Zucchini, Broccoli, Mushrooms, etc. Then I realised I had never ever added Potato. Today I tried to make Chicken & Potato Patties, but I decided to make bite-size balls and fried them. I used 250g Chicken Mince and 2 Potatoes, and all disappeared instantly. I will double the recipe next time.
