🥘 Ingredients

The remains of cold potatoes; to every lb. allow 2 tablespoonfuls of flour, 2 ditto of minced onions, 1 oz. of butter, milk.

👨‍🍳 Method

Mash the potatoes with a fork until perfectly free from lumps; stir in the other ingredients, and add sufficient milk to moisten them well; press the potatoes into a mould, and bake in a moderate oven until nicely brown, which will be in from 20 minutes to 1/2 hour. Turn them out of the mould, and serve.

This one hit different

I tried this recipe this week, eager to breathe new life into my leftover potatoes. I found the process delightfully simple and satisfying, a true comfort in these busy times. The surprise came when I added the minced onions – raw, as instructed. I was skeptical, but as the mixture baked, the onions softened and sweetened, becoming an unexpected highlight. This recipe is perfect for the weeknight cook seeking a warm, homely meal. I pressed my potato mixture into a small loaf tin and was rewarded with a golden, crusty exterior hiding a soft, creamy interior. It was a hit with my family, and I'll be making it again soon. Next time, I'll try adding a sprinkle of cheese on top for an extra touch of indulgence.
