How To Make byron potatoes

• Step 1
  Preheat the oven to 400°F.
• Step 2
  Prick the potatoes with a fork, place on a baking sheet and bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until cooked through and tender when tested with the point of a sharp knife, or squeezed between finger and thumb.
• Step 3
  While they are still hot, cut the potatoes in half. Using a metal spoon, scoop out the flesh. Mash lightly, stir in the butter, season to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper, then allow to cool.
• Step 4
  Sprinkle a little flour onto a work surface and, with floured hands, divide the mixture into four equal portions. Shape each portion into a ball, then gently press into round patties 3/4-inch thick. Transfer to an oiled baking sheet.
• Step 5
  Preheat the broiler to high.
• Step 6
  Make an indentation 1/2-inch deep in the center of each patty with your thumb or the back of a teaspoon, then pour in some cream. Sprinkle the cheese over the patties, place under the hot broiler and cook until the cheese is melted and browned.
• Step 7
  NOTE: These can be prepared in advance, or having shaped and made the indent, the patties can be left for a few hours until ready to finish.
