Food Sides & Vegetables

Tattie, Cheese & Onion Rumpledethumps

Rumpledethumps

Traditionally in Scotland, Rumpledethumps recipes tend to be potatoes, turnip and other left over veg form the day before.  It can actually be used to use up any leftovers at all, in a similar way to the English Bubble and Squeak Recipe, or the Irish Colcannon.  There are a few times that I’ve wondered what Colcannon is, and now I know.

The one biggest ingredient tends to be left overs mashed up, but mashed tatties (potatoes) tends to make up the bulk of the dish, with vegetables and sometimes meats making up some of the rest.  It can be used as a side potato dish or on its own as a full meal.   For this recipe, I used our favourite Black Bomber Cheese, courtesy of @aberdeenbutcher on Twitter.

An easily made dish and a fantastic way to use up leftovers from the previous day, or from a Sunday Roast. I made it as a stand alone dish for the kids supper.

Servings 6

Ingredients
  

  • 5 lbs Tatties Potatoes They must be mashable potatoes, similar to king Edwards, Kestrels, Maris Pipers etc.
  • 2 Onions
  • Salt & Pepper
  • 200 g Grated Black Bomber Cheese
  • Rapeseed or Sunflower Oil

Instructions
 

  • Mash boiled potatoes and do not add milk or butter, or the mash will become too soft to work with.
  • Chop up the onions and lightly fry.
  • Add the fried onions, salt, pepper, and the grated cheese to the potatoes.
  • Make round patties with the potatoes.
  • Add them to a pan with hot oil and shallow fry for 5 minutes each side, or until golden brown. If you are using leftovers, the goal is to reheat thoroughly all the way through.
  • Serve as a side dish, an accompaniment, or even as a main dish with salad as a side.

A wee note, and I am so sorry I have to add this to my website.

I sincerely thank the huge amount of readers that show up weekly to read my wee blog, and this note doesn’t apply to the majority of you.

I’m not perfect, and this website is free to browse, read, and use my recipes.  It’s a personal website, not a big business.  Sometimes I make mistakes.  If you find one, I’d like you to let me know so I can fix it, but please don’t call me names.

Also, please don’t use my photographs anywhere else, as I have taken most of them myself.  With some photographs, I’ve paid to be able to use them or been given the right to use them by their owners.

If you wish to use my photographs, please ask.
