In these two examples, the changes are: coating — flour coating → heavy breaded, sauce — yogurt → garlic aioli, cooking method — sauteed → deep-fried.

Sauce: Yogurt → Garlic aioliBase: sauteed → Deep-friedCoating: Flour coating → Heavy breaded
  • Both plates use potato patties. One has a light flour dusting and a brushed pan. The other has a thick breadcrumb crust and is deep-fried.
  • The heavy crumb coating retains enough frying oil to nearly double the calories of the same mashed-potato center.
  • Two spoonfuls of mayonnaise-based garlic aioli replace plain yogurt on the breaded plate.
