Pratie Cakes

2 c Potatoes; mashed (fresh or prefared from flakes)
1/2 c All-purpose flour; unsifted (reserve some 1 tb to flouring board)
1/4 ts Salt
2 tb Onion; finely chopped
2 tb Margarine;

Turn mashed potatoes into a large bowl. Add flour, salt, and onion. Mix thoroughly with hands and fingers until completely mixed and smooth. Pat on a lightly floured board until 1/2 inch thick. Cut with a 3-inch cookie cutter. Place on a cookie sheet, cover lightly with waxed paper, and chill in refrigerator until just before cooking. To cook, use 1 tablespoon margarine at a time. Melt margarine in a large frying pan or stovetop griddle. Fry cakes over moderately hot heat, turning to brown on both sides. Serve immediately.
