Heat the onion till golden in a couple of tablespoons of lightly browned butter.
Mash the potatoes and moisten the rusk flour in a little water.
Mix all the ingredients until there is consistency and flavour generously with salt, white pepper and (optional) a little finely crushed allspice.
Use a pair of spoons to shape the mixture into relatively large, round balls and transfer to a floured chopping board.
Fry them slowly in plenty of butter.

100ml cream
200ml beef stock
