Ingredients:

450g potatoes
120g self-raising flour
30g sugar
30g butter
1/4 tsp mixed spice
1 egg
60ml milk

Method:

Peel the potatoes before chopping and boiling in lightly-salted water until tender (about 30 minutes). Drain and place in a bowl. Mash the potatoes then add all the remaining ingredients. Stir until smooth then turn onto a floured surface and shape into rounds about 3cm thick.

Transfer to a well-oiled baking sheet and bake in an oven pre-heated to 200°C (400°F/Gas Mark 6) for about 20 minutes, or until the potato cakes are cooked through and are golden brown in colour. Serve with bacon and topped with a fried or poached egg.
