Potato, Bacon and Sauerkraut Patties are a classic comfort food dish that is savory and satisfying. This recipe combines the creaminess of mashed potatoes, the saltiness of bacon, and the sourness of sauerkraut to make a perfect appetizer or snack. The caraway seeds add a nutty flavor to each bite, while the brown sugar provides a small amount of sweetness to offset the sourness of the sauerkraut. These patties are best served immediately while hot and crispy. You can enjoy them with your favorite dipping sauce or eat them plain.

5.Form the mixture into patties and place onto a plate.
6.Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add patties and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until crispy and golden brown.
