- Preheat oven to 225 degrees.

- In a bowl, combine the mashed potatoes, cayenne and, if needed, salt and freshly ground pepper.
- Brush the edges of 4 bread rectangles lightly with the egg yolk mixture.
- Shape 1 tablespoon of the potato mixture into a log along a long edge of a rectangle, leaving 1/2 inch on each end.
- Tightly roll up the bread to form a cylinder; press the ends together to seal.
- Repeat with the remaining bread and potato mixture.
- In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons oil over medium heat and it shimmers.
- Add enough rolls to make a layer with a little space between each.
- Fry, turning occasionally, until well-browned, about 1-1/2 minutes.
- Transfer to paper towel-lined baking sheet and place in oven.
- Repeat with the remaining rolls.
- Serve hot as an appetizer or buffet.
- * Youll need the squishy kind of sliced bread, not the sturdy home-style kind.
- ** Taste the filling before adding salt and pepper.
- It might be good to your taste without adding any more.
