Bert Greene'S Potato Scallion Cakes (Fritterra)

1. 1

   Wash and trim the scallions, leaving about 2 inches of green stems. Cook in boiling water until tender, about 5 minutes. Drain and chop finely.

2. 2

   Place the scallions in a medium-sized bowl. Add the eggs, nutmeg, salt, pepper to taste, bread crumbs, and mashed potatoes. Mix well.

3. 3

   Heat the oils in a large skillet until hot but not smoking. (Searing the cakes quickly helps them stay together.) Shape the onion-potato mixture into patties, using 2 rounded tablespoons of the mixture for each patty. Saute, about six at a time, until golden brown on both sides, 2 or 3 minutes per side. Keep warm while sauteing the remaining patties.
