What to Do
- In a large bowl, combine the cooled potatoes, egg yolk, butter, salt, and pepper.

- Roll the potato mixture into tablespoon-sized balls. Dip the balls into the beaten egg, then in the bread crumb mixture.

Notes
A perfect make-ahead side dish. They just need to be rewarmed on a cookie sheet in a 250 degree F. oven for about 20 minutes.
