Flour, milk, salt and butter – That's all it really takes
With cooked and mashed potatoes
To make Potato Cakes.
Mix them all together
And then roll out the dough;
Cut into rounds or squares
A half-inch thick or so.
Fry them for 3 minutes
In a heavy bottomed pan,
Then turn and fry the other side –
Resist them if you can!
