Black Pudding Potato Cakes Recipes

Steps:

• Make the chutney: heat the vinegar and sugar with 1 tbsp cold water, swirling until sugar dissolves. Throw in the onion and cook for 1 min, then add the tomatoes and cook for 3 mins until starting to soften. Turn off the heat and set aside to cool.
• Mix the mashed potato and spring onion with some seasoning, then carefully fold in the black pudding. Shape into 4 patties and dust in the flour. Heat half the oil in a large non-stick frying pan and cook the potato cakes for 3 mins each side until golden. Remove from the pan and keep warm.
• Heat the remaining oil in the frying pan, then crack both eggs in and cook how you like them. Serve 2 black pudding cakes per person, topped with a fried egg and a dollop of tomato chutney.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/ gas 4. Coarsely grate the potatoes into a tea towel and wring dry, then transfer to a bowl.
• Melt the butter in a large ovenproof frying pan, and add the onion, garlic and black pudding. Cook until the onion is soft but not coloured, about 6-8 mins, then take off the heat and combine with the potatoes and cheese. Season, then bring together with your hands to shape into four generous potato cakes. Put in the fridge to chill for 30 mins.
• Wipe out the pan, then heat the oil. Fry the cakes until they are lightly brown, taking care when you flip them, for 2-3 mins either side. Transfer to the oven and cook for about 15 mins until they are cooked through and crisp. Serve each one topped with a fried egg.
