Easy Potato Scone Recipe and Method
Easy Potato Scone Recipe and Method
8oz potatoes
4oz flour
Salt/pepper to taste
Knob of butter for mashing potatoes
Peel potatoes and cut into chunks, boil until cooked through
Drain potatoes and leave sitting for approx. 10 mins to air dry
Add butter to potatoes and mash until smooth – Allow to cool
Gradually add flour until mixture becomes a firm dough – this may not require the full amount of flour or may require more. The consistency of the dough is more important than the flour measurement.
Once desired consistency is reached, empty to a floured board and knead gently to bring together.
Separate into two
For each batch, roll into a ball then flatten out into a circular shape, sprinkling flour if required.
Once about the size of a side plate, mark into quarters and fork the surface
I personally cut the scone into quarters for frying before putting them in the pan
Fry gently with oil at moderate heat for a few minutes each side
Serve with breakfast, roast meats, burgers etc
If you would like to see me making these and serving with breakfast as in the image, you can find the video here.
Made these after watching your video. Oh my gosh, they are delicious. Thank you for bringing these into my life! Always looking for ways to use leftovers and, being vegan, lots of the recipes include eggs etc. So it is q delight to come across a recipe I can use. More please, especially as I think eggs will become very expensive soon and it is always useful to have something to fall back on when a trip to the shops is not on the cards.
So glad you enjoyed them. I will be doing more cooking in the near future now I am feeling healthier.
