Start with a bowl and a scale.

Measure 250 grams of leftover mashed potatoes into the bowl.

Add 65 grams of all-purpose flour to the bowl.

Add a big pinch of salt and a big pinch of black pepper to the mixture.

Work the mixture with your hands until it becomes a dough.

Lightly flour the countertop and roll out the dough, or flatten it with your hands.

Shape the dough into a round, traditional flat shape.

Use a cutter to create an indentation in the top and a crisscross pattern.

Heat a skillet over medium heat and add vegetable oil.

Once the oil is hot and smoking, place the first scone in the pan.

Cook the scone until it is golden brown on one side, then flip it over and cook until golden brown on the other side.

Remove the cooked scone and place it on a cooling rack to prevent sogginess.

Add more oil to the pan and repeat the cooking process for the second scone.
