 Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
    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. :
