What you'll need...

  • 320g leftover roast potatoes
  • 300g leftover cooked vegetables like carrots, turnips, swede, parsnips, Brussels sprouts, etc.
  • Handful of rosemary or thyme
  • Olive oil
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Method

  1. Place the veggies in a large bowl and mash. Avoid over-mashing, so the patties keep their shape and still have texture. Using your hands, shape the mashed vegetables into 6 evenly shaped patties. 

  2. Arrange the patties in the air fryer in a single layer, avoiding about overlap. Cook at 190C for 15 minutes. For the final 5 minutes, sprinkle salt and pepper, and scatter over the herbs with a drizzle of oil. 

  3. Remove using a slotted turner and serve warm, alongside leftover turkey meat, wellington and fresh gravy. You may even wish to tuck into bubble and squeak for breakfast, simply top with a fried egg.
