This recipe comes from the 1983 cookbook Traditional British Cooking. This recipe assumes that the potatoes are already cooked and mashed.
Ingredients:
1 -2 cup all-purpose flour
1/8 teaspoon salt
2 cups whole milk (more or less, enough to mix)
1 lb mashed potatoes
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, whisk together flour and salt.
2. Put the mashed potatoes in a larger bowl.
3. Knead together enough flour and milk INTO the potatoes to make a stiff dough. The amount of flour will depend on the variety of potato used.
4. On a floured surface, roll out the dough into a very thin sheet.
5. Cut into rounds with a biscuit cutter; prick each round with a fork.
6. Bake on a hot greased griddle 2 or 3 minutes.
7. Turn and cook for another 2 minutes.
8. Serve hot with a pat of butter.
