Directions
1. Boil the potatoes for 12-15 mins or until tender, then drain and return to the pan over a low heat for 1-2 mins to dry out. Add the butter and mash well. Meanwhile, boil the sprouts for 3-5 mins until just tender. Drain and cool quickly under cold running water. Shake dry, then shred as finely as you can.

3. Tip the flour onto a plate, then coat the cakes, tapping off the excess.
4. Heat the oil in a large frying pan and shallow-fry the cakes for 2 mins each side, turning carefully. Drain on kitchen paper and transfer to a baking sheet lined with greaseproof paper. (Cool, cover and chill or freeze.

6. Poach your egg to your liking and serve over the top of the bubble & squeak cake.
