An old english friend of mine introduced me to this super simple snack a few months back and tonight I decided to attempt to make it.  I Google’d a recipe and followed it as closely as possible – skipping the cabbage (since I didn’t have any).  It turned out amazing and I thought I should share.

• 6 small or 4 large potatoes
• 1 cup of shredded cheese
• 1/2 cup of scallions
• 1 Tablespoon of butter or margarine

Peel the potatoes, cut them in half and boil for 20 minutes.  Drain the water and add the butter, scallions and cheese.  Mash until similar to a cookie dough consistency – ball and flatten then fry on high heat in vegetable oil to desired crispiness level.

Next time I plan to add some cabbage and see how it goes.  You should give this recipe a shot – it is a fantastic side dish or snack with some sour cream.
