How to Make Old Sussex Potato Cheese Cakes

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Boil and mash 1 lb (450g) of potatoes until completely smooth. Transfer to a medium bowl.
  3. Add 1/2 cup (60g) all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup (50g) grated cheddar cheese, 1 large egg, 2 tablespoons (30g) unsalted butter (melted), and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Mix thoroughly until a dough forms.
  4. Lightly flour a clean work surface. Turn the potato mixture onto the floured board.
  5. Roll the mixture into 1-inch balls and gently flatten each one with your hand or a fork to about 1/2-inch thickness.
  6. Line a baking tray with parchment paper. Arrange the potato cakes onto the prepared baking tray, leaving some space between each one.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
  8. Serve immediately and enjoy these delicious cheesy treats!
