• In a frying pan saute the bacon and onions and thyme.
• Add mushrooms and cook for about 5 minutes until soft.
• Combine with the potatoes and mix gently, taking care not to mash them too much.
• Heat oil in a frying pan and add 3 or 4 spoonfuls of the mixture (See cook's note at the bottom.)
• Using a spatula, pat the mixture into a round flat cake.
