--------  ------------  --------------------------------
     1/2   lb           Cooked Potatoes
   2       oz           Flour
     1/2   oz           Butter
                        Pinch Salt
                        A little Milk or Buttermilk
                        To bind

  :       To test for the correct heat on the gridle
  sprinkle it with a little flour. If the flour browns
  at once it is too hot; it should take a few seconds to
  turn colour.
  :       Grease a gridle or heavy frying-pan. Mash the
  patatoes with the butter and a little milk. Mix with a
  spoon. Add the salt and a little of the flour. Use the
  fingers until it is all taken up and the dough is
  fairly stiff. Turn out on to a floured surface. Roll
  out to 1/4 inch thick and cut into rounds using a
  breakfast cup as a cutter. Place on the hot greased
  gridle or frying-pan. Cook for 2 minutes util the
  underside is brown. Turn and repeat on the other side.
  Serve piping hot, spread with butter. :
