Servings:2 servings
Calories:639kcal
Ingredients
For the farls:
- 3 medium potato (3 potatoes = approx. 500g/ 1.1lbs)
- ¼ cup wholegrain flour
- 1 tsp salt
Instructions
- Peel, then quarter potatoes, boil for 15 mins until easily pierced with a fork. Drain and cool under running cold water. Allow to go cold. This recipe is also perfect for using leftover potatoes.
- Mash the soft spuds with a fork or masher.
- Add half the flour to the potato mix and spread the rest onto a work space.
- Mix the flour along with the potatoes, salt (and seasoning of choice, see notes) until you have a dough. Make balls from the dough.
- Press the balls flat into the flour on the workspace. They should be 1-2 cm thick.

- Put a pan on medium heat, NO oil, then add the potato farls, (make sure each side is covered lightly with flour before putting into the pan).
- Cook on each side for about 3-4 minutes, until nicely browned.
- Serve with a little extra salt.

Optional as a fry up:
- Heat up the beans in a sauce pan. 3-4 mins on a medium heat is plenty. Don't let them burn, stir ocassionally.
- Slice the tomatoes in half. Add a tbsp olive oil to a pan on medium-high heat.
- Add the tomatoes, then flip after a couple of minutes. Then crack in the eggs to one side. Cook with a lid (if available) to speed up the frying process.
- Another minute or two and the eggs will be ready and tomatoes will be nicely browned. Enjoy!
NOTES
Seasoning Ideas:Â Think Indian curry, Italian basil and garlic, spicy pepper flakes, grated cheddar cheese and butter. Rosemary is really good, too. Use plenty to get the flavour you want!
