We have this for a little change in side dishes. It also is a good recipe to make use of stale bread or rolls and left over potatoes. These are quick and easy to make. Really good with gravy from a roast or stew. Try them I'm sure you'll like them. My kids always make sure I don't have any left-overs. Ingredients:

2 cups water |
3 cups potatoes (cooked and riced or left over and grated) |
1 teaspoon salt |
4 -5 tablespoons flour |
4 -5 tablespoons cream of wheat or 4 -5 tablespoons cornmeal |
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg |
1 egg |
parsley |
Directions:
1. Soak buns in bowl of water for about 30 minutes.
2. Meanwhile rice or grate potato using the fine grater into a medium bowl.
