Makes 2 circles each with 4 quarters.
Add salt and butter, then work in enough flour to make a pliable dough. Divide the dough in two and roll out on a floured surface to form two circles 22 cm (9 in) in diameter and 5 mm (¼ in) in thickness.
Cut each circle into quarters and bake on a hot griddle or pan for about 5 minutes or until browned on both sides. Some people like to grease the baking surface, while others prefer a light dusting of flour for a drier effect.
Commercial recipes tend to use potato flour/flakes instead of mashed potato and have little to no fat. They are traditionally sold as thin rectangular slices in packs of four.
Popular ways to eat Potato bread:
1. Fried as part of the traditional fried breakfast, the Ulster Fry, which includes other breads that have been fried, such as soda bread.
2. Toasted and smothered with butter, and perhaps also cheese.
3. With baked beans/eggs as a children's meal.
Your Potato bread is ready. Buon appetito!
