  1. Combine together flour, sugar, salt and baking powder.
  2. To the mixture, add buttermilk and stir to combine.

  5. Place equal amounts of mashed potatoes onto each dough. Seal all edges of each one, just like you see it in the picture.
  6. Carefully roll out each one onto a flat piece, you may need to continue flouring the surface that you're working on.
  7. Preheat a skillet, filled with oil, to a medium heat, fry each pastry until it's golden brown. They are best when served immediately.
