Potato Cakes

Ingredients:
potatoes, raw, skin
butter, without salt
salt, table
wheat flour, white, all-purpose, unenriched

Directions:
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.
