Potato Cakes
Something a little different to try with the family. I cooked the potatoes in the morning as I had 10 minutes to spare in the kitchen. When it came to preparing the dinner, it didn’t take as long to do. I also made an entire bag of potatoes, cooked them all up and put half in the freezer for a meal next week. Kids loved these!
1 Bag potatoes peeled, halved and cooked in salted boiling water until tender
4 Tablespoons Nutritional Yeast (I use Marigold Engevita )
Dairy free milk
3 Tablespoons cornflour
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon paprika
Salt and pepper
Extra virgin olive oil for frying
Put the potatoes in a bowl and add the nutritional yeast. Add the dairy free milk a tablespoon at a time to mash the potatoes to a creamy yet firm consistency. Salt and pepper to taste. In a separate bowl mix together the cornflour, garlic powder and paprika. Using your hands take the mash and roll into a ball. Flatten each side to form a pattie shape. Coat in the cornflour mixture and fry in extra virgin olive oil on each side until crispy. Transfer to a baking tray. Use up all the mash and then warm them through in the oven at 180 degrees until nice a hot.
