POTATO FARLS

POTATO FARLS

A farl is a flat piece of bread, cooked on a griddle but this is also known as potato bread or scones. It's the breakfast that built the Titanic, powered George Best and makes me less homesick for Belfast.

POTATO FARLS

Ingredients
 
mashed potatoes 500g, no milk added, just
a knob of butter
plain flour 100g, with an extra handful spare
salt and pepper to taste

Method

Mix the butter and seasoning through the mashed potato and leave to cool. Once you can handle the potato, add the flour, half at a time, mixing well. You want a dough that isn't sticky, but not too stiff. Flour the work surface and then roll the dough out until it is about 5mm thick. Cut into farls. You should get 8-10 from this. Make a batch and freeze by layering with greaseproof paper so you can cook them as needed. They're best fried in oil until golden or you can use a dry pan or grill until crisp on either side. Serve with fried eggs.
