Re: Potato Cakes
Are you talking about the Potato Cakes you can buy in just about every fish n chip shop here in Victoria???
That recipe sounds more like a rosti than a potato cake like I know it. Here, they are whole slices of potato coated in a batter and then fried...

You can buy them with potato or mars bars and bountys !
I wonder why West coast Scotland has a MEGA heart disease issue ! Deep fried battered mars bars and "Pizza crunch " mmmmm...........
Anyway , Are you looking for " tattie scones "?
Potato cakes in Ireland , I believe .

It’s a butchers in Currambine Marketplace shopping centre, which is on the corner of Marmion & Shenton Avenues, in the northern suburbs.
We get them from there all the time. Square sausage as well.

When did Fred die??
I loved watching his programmes on TV. Really interesting and informative, and one of the most down to earth blokes I've ever had the pleasure of watching.
RIP Fred........

warbies is at the bottom of blackburn road. I used to pass it on the way into town and the smell was delicious.
i think they are putting up a statue of fred.
i hope if you find any potato cakes they are as good as the warbies ones
