Enhance potato scones with flavorful Double Gloucester cheese, adding richness and depth.
Ingredients:
  • 500g kestrel potatoes, peeled, chopped (see notes)
  • 0.60 gm sea salt
  • 1.00 gm baking powder
  • 60g butter, chopped
  • 165.00 ml plain flour
  • 80g cheese
Instructions:
  • In a large saucepan, submerge the potato in cold water and bring to a boil over high heat. Boil for 12 to 15 minutes until the potato is tender. Drain and transfer the potato to a bowl. Allow it to cool for 10 minutes.
  • Create creamy mashed potatoes. Incorporate sea salt, baking powder, and 40g butter, mixing well. Integrate flour and cheese, avoiding excessive mixing. Transfer mixture to a lightly floured surface. Divide into 3 portions and flatten each into a 1cm-thick, 12cm round. Cut into quarters.
  • In a frying pan over medium heat, melt half of the remaining 20g butter. Add half of the scones and cook for 3 minutes on each side until golden and crisp. Drain on a baking tray lined with paper towel. Repeat with the rest of the butter and scones. Season with salt and pepper, then serve immediately.
