Lancashire Potato Cakes With Chives Garlic and Cheese
"Posted for Zaar World Tours. This has been adapted from a British cookbook called "Favourite Harvest Recipes - Traditional Seasonal Fare" and is slightly different to other potato cake recipes in that it includes baking powder. I have since added the garlic, spring onions and cheese to the original recipe to pep it up a notch, so here is the original recipe with my additions added in :) ZWT REGION: England."

Hubby kept saying these are good what did you do. I really enjoyed these they were so easy to make I used an egg white instead of a full egg. I served this with fish and peas. Excelent meal and will do these again for sure. Thank you. -
These were enjoyed by all. I normally can't eat mashed potatoes but these were great.
