Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

Place cold mashed potatoes in a medium size bowl and break apart with a fork.
Add 1-2 eggs depending on quantity of mashed potatoes.
Add in 1/4 cup of the breadcrumbs.
Add in grated or shredded parmesan or romano cheese.
Mix all ingredients together. If mixture seems more on the runny side add a bit more breadcrumbs. The potatoes need to be somewhat soft but firm enough to form a patty.
Heat a large skillet with a light layer of light olive oil or other neutral oil.
Grab a plate or platter and place a sheet of paper towel over it to absorb grease from fried potato pancakes.
Scoop a 1/4 cup of pototoes into your hand and form a patty, slightly flatten.
Glently place in skillet and fry until each side is browned about 5 min per side.
Remove and place on paper towel lined plate.
Sprinkle with flaky salt.

Notes

This recipe can be increased. All measurements are a guide, if you have more mashed potatoes you can just add a bit more eggs, breadcrumbs and cheese.
