Easy potato scallops

In my opinion the best vegetable on earth is the humble potato
Its delicious, its easy to prepare and its simply a blank canvas for delicious recipes!

When it comes too cooking,i prefer old, tried and tested recipes
This recipe comes from my favorite cookbook, an old woman's weekly (cookbook, not magazine)

These are a delicious side dish, though quite unhealthy . A crisp, golden-brown batter and a soft, potato center
These do take a bit of time, so be prepared!
