Peel the boiled potatoes and grate them using the coarse side of a grater. Cut the sausage (or ham) into small, square cubes. Mix both with the egg and seasonings, gradually adding the flour. The batter should have a consistency similar to potato pancake batter. Take a heaped tablespoon of the potato mixture and form it into a flat cake in a hot pan. Fry until golden brown on both sides and drain on kitchen paper. Serve with a mixed salad. This dish is the perfect way to use up leftover boiled potatoes, as you usually have eggs and sausage on hand.
