Posted for Zaar World Tours. This has been adapted from a British cookbook called "Favourite Harvest Recipes - Traditional Seasonal Fare" and is slightly different to other potato cake recipes in that it includes baking powder. I have since added the garlic, spring onions and cheese to the original recipe to pep it up a notch, so here is the original recipe with my additions added in :) ZWT REGION: England.

Ingredients

4 serv.
  • lb potato, peeled (450g)↗1
  • ounce butter (30g)↗1
  • teaspoon salt↗1⁄2
  • egg↗1
  • ounces self raising flour (115g)↗4
  • teaspoon baking powder↗1
  • ounces cheese, grated (115g)↗4
  • whole garlic clove↗1 -2
  • small onion↗1
  • spring onions, finely chopped (finely chopped) or 2 tablespoons chives (finely chopped)↗2

Step-by-step instructions

  1. 1

    Boil the potatoes until half cooked then add the onion and garlic into the pot. Mash together once potatoes are fully cooked.

  2. 2

    Stir in the rest of the ingredients to make a soft dough. It should not be sticky.

  3. 3

    Roll out onto a floured board until it is 1/2 inch thick (1.25 cm) and cut into round or triangle shapes. Cook 5-7 minutes on each side in a heavy based fry pan until golden brown. Serve immediately with plenty of butter.
