Potato and Smoked Salmon Pancakes

1 1/2 pounds mashed potatoes
3 tablespoons self raising flour
3 eggs
3 tablespoons milk
3 tablespoons double cream
2 egg whites
salt and freshly ground black pepper
freshly grated nutmeg
unsalted butter
3 ounces sliced smoked salmon

Mix the mashed potato with flour, whole eggs, milk and cream, and
beat  until smooth.  Beat in the extra egg whites and seasonings.
Pass through a sieve into a clean bowl.  Put to one side to rest.
Heat a griddle or skillet until evenly hot.  Grease lightly.  Drop
dessertspoons of the mixture onto a griddle - it should hold its
shape.  Put small pieces of smoked salmon on top and then a little
more potato  batter to enclose the filling.  After about 1 minute
when the underside is golden, flip over with a  palette knife and
cook on the other side.  Serve 4 or 5 per portion surrounded with
a rosemary cream and with a few shreds of smoked salmon on top or
a teaspoon of salmon caviar.
