  1. Peel and grate the potato. Then, squeeze out any excess moisture using a clean tea towel or kitchen paper.
  2. Finely chop the spring onion.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine the grated potato, chopped spring onion, plain flour, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly distributed.
  4. Take half of the potato mixture and form it into a small flat cake, approximately 1cm thick.
  5. Place the grated Cheddar cheese in the centre of the flat cake, making sure to leave a small border around the edges.
  6. Cover the cheese with the remaining potato mixture and press down gently to form a cohesive cake.
  7. Heat the olive oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium heat.
  8. Once the oil is hot, gently place the potato cake in the pan and cook for 5-7 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
  9. Remove the potato cake from the pan and place it on a plate lined with kitchen paper to drain any excess oil.
  10. Serve immediately.
