How’s about a tattie cake?

Serves 4

500g / 1lb tatties, grated
1 large onion, chopped
2 tbsp chopped parsley
1 egg, beaten
Salt & pepper
Olive oil

Put tatties in a bowl together with the onion, egg, parsley and salt and pepper to taste.
Mix well.
Heat the oil in a heavy frying pan and add the tattie mixture.
Fry until the underside is dark brown, about ten minutes.
Slide onto a plate and invert back into the pan.
Fry for another 10 minutes.

Burnt bits are allowed on this – in fact it makes it taste better.

Enjoy :D

How about mashing the potatoes along with some sweet potatoes, gives a brilliant colour and sweetens the mash. My very fussy middle child loves it.

I love my chilli wedges.
Cut potato into wedges, brush with a little oil, sprinkle a generous amount of chilli flakes and sea salt over them, bake / roast in a hot oven 'till done. BRILLIANT. Enjoy.

Have you tried making stovies?

I fry 2 onions along with 8 skinned sausages. (Just squeeze the meat out)
Peel and cut enough potatoes to almost fill an average size pan.
Place your onions and sausages in beside potatoes with a little water ( you can always add more water if needed ) COOK SLOWLY and stir often as they may stick to the bottom of your pan. I usually give mine about an hours cooking.
If you can't get roast dripping from your butcher. Add a tiny spot of gravy browning. Season with salt and pepper.
Delicious with a slice of bread and butter and a cup of milk.
I make a huge pot of stovies if I'm having a party. The only problem is, my pan's not big enough. I think I'll need to buy a catering pan for the next party. LOL
