[@howtomakedinner]

Thanks for watching! Have you ever had the pleasure of enjoying a tattie scone?

[@stepzc]

I live in Inverness! Great to see some Scottish "cuisine" being appreciated! ☺️

[@เครือวัลย์ดอนเนลลีย์-ฟ1ฟ]

Please remember, when frying, put in Away from you, then the oil will not splash over you.

Aye lass every mornin tattie scones with haggis scrambled eggs sausage bacon shrooms onions beans toms an a bowl of porridge oats too if I still feel hungry lol.... But I'd love to eat your tattie scone though bet it tastes divine 😜

[@jalil1371]

Spent a few of the best years of my life studying in Edinburg. For me the Scottish breakfast brings back so many memories. Thank u for the recipe.

[@howtomakedinner]

Ahh so good to hear. I also spent a couple years there (Dumfries & Galloway) and it holds such a special place in my heart! Cheers!

[@SeanStewart88]

Being from Scotland myself, having grown up on these and not having a clue how to make them I looked up the recipe and made them myself. Can’t find them anywhere over here in the states and it’s been a long time since I’ve been back in Scotland, thanks for the recipe.

[@howtomakedinner]

Lovely! I hope they bring back happy memories:)

[@pikricky]

I'm Scottish and my favourite breakfast roll has tattie scone, lorne sausage(square slice) and an egg on top,the best ever meal in a morning roll,always pan fried,deep fried are too greasy,you can dry fry them on a pan or skillet like flatbread when you're making them to eat later or freeze and then fry them in fat when your going to eat them,enjoyable video,tattie scones look great,I have relatives in Dumfries and Galloway,I know of Castle Point Caravan Park I think you mean Beeswing that's where Loch Arthur is

[@raymondsmith6494]

I’m just making potato skins and was looking for something to do with the inside when I found your recipe, I’ve done this before.......in Ireland we call it potato bread......and I’m gonna do it again, many thanks and top off the morning ta ya Paula!

[@howtomakedinner]

Awesome! I’m jealous about the potato skins! I think I’ll have to do something like that this weekend :)

[@ralphrowlands3902]

Thanks for that video. I love them and I’ve gotta say the video and the manner in which you do it is really good. So natural. Enjoyed.

[@HowToCookSmarter]

This is so cool! Love how these tattie scones are simple, no eggs, no cheese, just flour, seasonings and hot pan. I can see myself dipping these in some hot chili sauce.

[@howtomakedinner]

+How To Cook Smarter yes! I’ll try that too! Yum

Iv just been to Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 on the weekend and I loved the potato scones I brought some home but Iv just ran out so need to make some I’m totally obsessed

[@howtomakedinner]

Ahh so nice. There is nothing like Grannies food!!

[@123marlo]

You done well and they looked super just the way my grandma made them , I love them with anything on a Saturday or Sunday morning 👍❤️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇺🇸👌

[@howtomakedinner]

Ahh it makes my day to hear that! So glad you enjoyed it, and I'm glad Grandma would approve!

[@SaorAlba1970]

i actually use a gridle pan and i dust the pan with plain flour and put the scones on the gridle pan when hot, yours look great, and shallow fry with olive oil and remove the excess oil by placing the scones on kitchen paper and eat them with my breakfast, i add a dash of olive oil to my tattie scone mix

[@georgetait9831]

Oh boy ! Your initial description of tattie scones with haggis and HP sauce has sent me immediately to the kitchen!

[@howtomakedinner]

Hahaha perfect!!

[@rachelhudson8362]

I love these. Hard to find in English supermarkets now.

[@JohnCasserly]

All you can find now are those doughy Warburton's potato "cakes" here. 😒

[@amsodoneworkingnow1978]

Actually they are more eaten with square Lorne sausage and pan fried rather than deep fried only chip shops or fast food places deep fry. It's mainly used with breakfast fry up, bacon, egg, sausage and black pudding & beans. The favourite from take out is a bread roll with potato scone and fried eggs or bacon. And your rattle scones do not look the least bit over cooked they look just perfect

[@howtomakedinner]

Yep I guess I was eating most of mine from the chip shop. I LOVE square sausage too. I always found it hard to decide which meat I wanted :) thanks for saying so! I like them a bit on the darker side too 🥔

[@caretakerfoch6103]

Your good. Made some potato bread once in my breadmaker. Delicious. was thinking about potato scones but not imagining flatbread. Very entertaining. I will try.

[@JohnCasserly]

Just about to make some of these but wanted to double check the ratio of flour for leftover mash. Loved your take on it, but what's all this about tattie scones and haggis? Breakfast. With slice sausage middle bacon, and eggs. Haggis should be served with mashed potatoes and turnips, but the HP sauce is spot on. 😁

[@sharnndurning7952]

I’m from Glasgow Scotland . Tattie scones are the best 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Hello Glasgow!! They really are, aren’t they? How are you doing over there? I can’t wait to be able to visit again

Tasted just how i remembered then now freezer is full btw castle point is close to rockcliff never went swimming there but fished there in the winter for cod

[@maryrobertson2702]

I've never known them to be deep fried, always in a frying pan and we usually have them on a roll with square sausage.

We have these with Soda farls, bacon, eggs, sausages, black pudding, tomatoes, baked beans and HP sauce. Yum!

Have them with smoked salmon pate 😋😚 greetings from Glasgow.... I made mine with gluten free flour, turned out great 👍🏽

[@howtomakedinner]

Ohh sounds wonderful. The smoked salmon products in Scotland are the only ones that rival those from here in Canada in my opinion! I love Glasgow. I can’t wait for my next visit. I have fond memories of hanging out at Inn Deep near Kelvinbridge on summer evenings!

I do love tattie scones, but it boggles my mind that leftover mashed potatoes is actually a thing that exists lol in my house it doesn't matter if there's mountains of them, they're still all gonna get eaten that night :D

[@howtomakedinner]

Hahah I hear that! I can eat an obscene amount of mashed potatoes 😂

[@JohnCasserly]

I have to physically stop myself from scraping out that last spoonful. Even when it's cold. 🤣

On the east coast wee make them thicker or it’s a family recipe. Grill them and cover them in butter. Then crack a load of salt and pepper on top, delicious 😋

[@howtomakedinner]

Ohhh that sounds SO good. It’s really rainy where I am right now and I think those would hit the spot!

with bacon and eggs usually!

Layer a square Lorne sausage, a tottie scone and a runny fried egg in a Morton’s roll. Ye canny whack it!

[@howtomakedinner]

Hahah you’re speaking my language!!

[@CagedPaps]

Margarine? Behave yourself, if you're using margarine in your morning roll you need to rethink life. Scottish morning roll, butter, square sausage, scone and broon sauce with a tin of Irn Bru.

[@howtomakedinner]

Hahah marg was a regular occurrence for me, only because I was often getting my rolls from the chip shops! I’m a butter gal though :) and yes to the Brown sauce!!

[@CagedPaps]

@@howtomakedinner Ahh, I've never had a tattie scone from a chip shop / takeaway but yeah their rolls aren't usually real butter. Used to work near a place here in Edinburgh that made their own rolls and tattie scones, either pork link or beef square with a scone and brown was such a lift to a bad day. You get such good butter in Scotland there's really no point in using marge, unless of course you're using it every day and multiple meals then sure, health. But a couple times a week... go for butter.

[@howtomakedinner]

@@CagedPaps I agree 100%! I used to love going to that baked tattie shop in Edinburgh. For a minute there I was dreaming of opening one just like it here in Canada!

[@schechter01]

That is very similar to Irish potato bread...I made some a couple times, then started editing the basic recipe. A few thoughts: 1) Because of this video, I now know how "scone" is pronounced in Canada. (You're up north if memory serves) 2) The salt & pepper are necessary if you're not adding anything else. By itself, potato bread lacks flavor. That's why I started adding things like paprika, curry powder, chopped & sauteed garlic, etc. You can also add a little grated cheese to the mix; any hard cheese will do. (If you're feeling British, make it Stilton!) 3) Based on my sources, the ratio of mashed potatoes to flour should be 4:1 by weight. If you go by that then you don't need to think about arbitary amounts; however much potato you have, add 1/4th the weight of flour, no prob. 4) In Ireland they "dry-fry" it. No oil involved; they just sprinkle a little flour in the pan to keep the patties from sticking. I cook 'em that way if the plan is to freeze 'em afterward. They can always be fried in a little oil after thawing out later. 5) Props for using a cast iron pan! 👍 I've been wanting one (or two) lately...

[@howtomakedinner]

+Schechter Arts whoa so interesting!! Do they have a “porridge drawer” in Ireland too? It’s a way to keep leftover porridge and just let it set at room temp and slice it as you need it!

[@schechter01]

@@howtomakedinner 😳 ...this might be another language difference. In the States, "porridge" is oatmeal. You know, served hot, maybe with brown sugar in it or raisins, etc. Like breakfast cereal but with less sugar & no food dye. 😏 Unless you're doing it as a biology experiment, nothing good will come from letting a bowl of oatmeal sit at room temp for a long time, in a drawer or otherwise... It might look interesting but you wouldn't want to _smell_ the stuff, let alone taste it.

That's not a tattie scone. Looks more like a potato cake which is different.

Caramelised onions in the mashed potatoes improves them.
