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