IDEAL FOR YOUR FESTIVE PARTY: TATTIE SCONE CANAPES

 

These wee “tattie” scone canapés from Castle MacLellan are IDEAL for any Christmas party. Traditionally tattie scones are made with leftover potatoes – another idea for boxing day perhaps?

Makes approximately 30 small canapés

Ingredients

  • 125g potatoes cut into cubes
  • 100g plain flour
  • half teaspoon baking powder
  • 25g melted butter
  • 4 tablespoons milk
  • 1 egg beaten
  • 2 tablespoon of oil, for frying
  • Castle MacLellan pâté of choice

Method

  1. Cook the potatoes in plenty of salted simmering water until tender. Drain well and mash.
  2. Sift the flour and baking powder into a bowl, add the butter, milk and egg
  3. Mash well and add plenty of seasoning and mix to a soft sticky dough
  4. Heat some oil in a large heavy flat based frying pan
  5. Fry small teaspoons of the mixture as you would Scotch pancakes for 3 mins on each side until golden brown. Leave until cold.
  6. Fill a piping bag with a large star nozzle, and soften the pâté of your choice with a fork and place in the piping bag. Pipe pâté onto the scones – any Castle MacLellan pâté works well!
