This recipe is for a classic Irish potato cake, with the twist, in this case, that they are prepared and cooked as triangular wedges.
Ingredients:
450g cooked potatoes, thoroughly mashed until smooth
240g fine oatmeal
salt and freshly-ground black pepper, to taste
milk, as needed
Method:
Combine the potatoes and oatmeal in a bowl. Season to taste then work in just enough milk to form a soft dough.
Turn this out onto a work surface lightly dusted with oatmeal and roll out to about 2.5cm thick. Cut into triangles.
Heat an ungreased griddle pan or heavy-based frying pan. Add the potato oatcakes and cook for about 4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
