This is a true Ulster recipe. Very easy to make and so many different uses.
Ingredients:
1 lb freshly cooked potato
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons butter (margarine)
3/4-1 cup flour
Directions:
1. Mash the potatoes (make sure there are no lumps).
2. Sprinkle with salt and drizzle with the butter.
3. Knead in enough flour to make a pliable dough (usually 3/4 cup is enough).
4. Roll out to about 1/2 thick and cut into round patties about 4 across.
5. Heat a non stick skillet and brown on each side 3-4 minutes or until golden brown.
6. Serve with butter (you can sprinkle them with sugar if you are serving them as a treat).
7. NB: These are very tasty fried in bacon grease and served with breakfast.
