Potato Cakes Recipe

Directions:

1. Peel potatoes, and boil until tender. Drain and mash; add salt and butter. Mix well and allow to cool to room temperature. On a well-floured surface, place potatoes and 1 cup of flour and knead lightly but thoroughly, adding flour just until the dough is smooth and able to be rolled out and keep its shape. Roll out to a 1/2 inch thickness in a rectangle. Cut into three or four rows, and then cut each row into equilateral triangles, about 2 inches on each side. This is the traditional shape, but you could also use a biscuit cutter. Place in a griddle or frying pan over low heat and cook on each side until browned. Serve hot, or freeze for later use.
