On Tuesday we had our house sitters came for lunch. We had met them before but this was the first time that they have been to the house. Silly me, I suggested they came for lunch but then I realised that I didn't know if they couldn't eat certain things or what they liked/didn't like.
As it was hot and they were coming after an arranged meeting so weren't exactly sure when they could get here, I had cold meat and salads.
Three different types of meat, some hard boiled eggs, potato and coleslaw with bread rolls and a sponge roll to have with coffee. Thankfully they were easy to please and didn't have any allergies.
However because I had prepared quite a bit of food we had plenty left overs so that was dinner for us as well.
I had read about someone who makes extra mashed potato when they have it and then she makes potato cakes from the extra.
I get sick of the same foods, two meals are okay but no more than that so I decided to give the potato cakes a go.
There wasn't very much mayo on the potatoes so I just mashed them and then I added the coleslaw as well, this was made from cabbage, carrot, apple and onion so I figured it would be okay. Added them together with the rest of the rice flour that I had about a quarter of a cup and formed them into patties, round them in flour and lightly fried them.
Two lots of lunches for to take to work and no waste, what a bonus. The original recipe had half potato and half cheese but I forgot that!
