Tattie, Cheese & Onion Rumpledethumps

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.

Ingredients Method

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

Method
 

  1. Mash boiled potatoes and do not add milk or butter, or the mash will become too soft to work with.
  2. Chop up the onions and lightly fry.
  3. Add the fried onions, salt, pepper, and the grated cheese to the potatoes.
  4. Make round patties with the potatoes.
  5. 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.
  6. Serve as a side dish, an accompaniment, or even as a main dish with salad as a side.
