Ingredients
 

  • 225 g potatoes cooked and mashed
  • 50 g plain flour
  • 25 g butter
  • 2 tbsp double cream heavy cream
  • 1/2 tsp salt plus white pepper to taste
  • 3 tbsp creme fraiche
  • 100 g smoked salmon 3 slices
  • chive snippings to decorate

Instructions
 

  • Mix the potato with the plain flour and the softened butter, don't overmix or you will get tough scones. Add the cream till you get a pancake style batter and season to taste
  • Warm a griddle/frying pan and add oil then wipe off so very little remains.
  • Drop spoonfulls of the batter on to the pan and do not move them! Let them cook for 3 minutes then turn over and cook the other side 2 minutes. They should be golden brown.
  • Remove from pan and cool.
  • Spread each tattie scone with creme fraiche and top with a piece of smoked salmon and a sprinkling of snipped chives.
  • This makes approximately 24 mini tattie scones

Notes

Remember not to use mashed potato that already has milk added as this will make your batter too loose. Boil a potato and mash it.
