Cheddar Cakes

Recommended Posts

These are a sort of potato cake made with Cheddar cheese.

 

2 large potatoes

100g or more REAL Cheddar cheese (the stuff with a rind on, not the muck that comes in rectangular blocks)

Chopped parsley to suit your taste

Salt & pepper

1 teaspoon onion powder

Little bit of milk to bind, if necessary

1 egg, beaten

flour to dredge

breadcrumbs to coat.

 

Cook the potatoes in the microwave until soft (remember to prick the skins first to stop any possible explosions). Remove the skin and mash together with the other ingredients (not the egg, flour or crumbs) to form a firm mouldable mixture.

 

Form by hand into small cakes or rolls, coat with flour, egg then breadcrumbs and fry in shallow fat until nicely browned.

 

Edit: you can, of course, cook the potatoes in a conventional oven but avoid boiling them - that will give excessive moisture and make them difficult to form into cakes.
