Peas and Perilla Potato Patties

Peas and perilla potato patties – say that 5X fast! A fun snack to make with leftover mashed potatoes, coated with a simple fun ingredient that is the key to its success. Thai toasted rice powder (Khao khua) brings a nuttiness and super crunchy crust to an otherwise mushy dish. Season as simply as I did with salt and pepper, or I can see this being AMAZING with curry powder or garam masala.
