Potato Farls (Irish) - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 1/4 lbs potatoes (3 or 4)
    2 tablespoons butter, melted
    1 cup flour, all purpose
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    4 teaspoons vegetable oil
Preparation
    Peel and halve potatoes; put in large saucepan with enough water to cover. Bring to boil; simmer, covered, 20 to 30 minutes, until fork-tender.
    Drain well; return to saucepan over low heat. Add butter; mash potatoes well. Stir in flour and salt.
    Gather mixture into a ball; turn onto lightly floured surface. Knead lightly until smooth.
    Divide dough in half. Roll out one half into an 8 inches (20 cm) circle, about 1/4 inches thick.
    Cut into quarters; set aside. Repeat with remaining dough.
    In large nonstick skillet, heat half the oil over medium-high heat. Cook dough quarters in batches, 2 minutes on each side or until golden brown, adding more oil as necessary.
    Serve warm.
