Add chopped mushrooms and cook until moisture evaporates, about 8 minutes.

Combine mashed potatoes with mushroom mixture, mixing well.

Season with salt, pepper, and chopped parsley to taste.

Form mixture into patties about 1/2 inch thick.

Dredge each patty in flour, then dip in beaten egg, and coat with breadcrumbs.

Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat until shimmering.

Fry patties until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side.

Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

Serve warm with sour cream or yogurt.
