How to cook deliciously - Tender Potato Biscuits

1. Stage

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Stage

In a medium bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Cut in butter, until pieces of butter are no larger than peas. Use a fork to stir in mashed potatoes, breaking them up into chunks. Make a well in the mixture, and pour in egg, water and milk. Stir into a loose dough using the fork.

3. Stage

Turn dough out onto a floured surface, and knead for 6 or 8 times so the dough holds together. Pat the dough out to about 3/4 inch thickness, and cut into circles with a biscuit cutter or drinking glass. Place biscuits onto the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops with 2 tablespoons milk.

4. Stage

Bake for 15 to 20 minutes in the preheated oven, or until bottoms are golden.
