Ingredients
Cold mashed potato

Anything else you fancy or have spare Spring onions, cooked meat, small squares of hard cheese.
Salt and pepper
2 spoons plain flour
If it bubbles and squeaks, there’s a strong chance it’s bubble and squeak you’re making! At the moment shopping can be difficult, so here’s a simple recipe to use up leftovers, particularly mashed potato and cooked vegetables.
• Mix together the potato, vegetables and other ingredients in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper to your taste.
• Form the created mixture into cakes, around the size and shape of a burger - or however you fancy them.
• Sprinkle the flour onto a plate and coat each cake all over.
• Pour the oil into a frying pan and begin to heat.
• Once the oil has warmed up and is sizzling, fry the cakes until golden brown on each side, turning regularly.
• If you like, you can add a fried or poached egg on the top, or get creative with toppings and add whatever else you may have leftover from other meals.
• Enjoy!
