Ingredients;

2 Cups plain flour
3 medium slices potato

Sift flour and salt into a bowl and make a well in the centre.
Fill with Rewena and sprinkle baking soda over the top. Combine
and knead mixture for about 10 minutes, adding a little water if
the mixture is too firm. Shape into loaves or place the mixture
