Scottish Bubbles and Squeak Patties are a twist on the classic British dish of Bubble and Squeak. This Scottish version features mashed potatoes mixed with shredded cabbage, carrots, onion, cheese, and mustard, formed into small patties and cooked until hot and crispy. This dish is often made with leftovers from a big Sunday roast dinner, but can also be made fresh for a comforting and satisfying meal any time of the week.

Instructions

1.	Boil the potatoes in a large pot of salted water until tender.
2.	While the potatoes are cooking, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat.
3.	Add the cabbage, onion, and carrot to the skillet and cook until the vegetables are tender.
4.	Drain the potatoes and mash them in a bowl.
5.	Stir in the cooked vegetables, mustard, and cheddar cheese. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
6.	Form the mixture into small patties.
7.	Heat a lightly oiled skillet over medium heat and cook the patties until browned on both sides and hot throughout.
