Preheat oven to 400.

Boil potatoes until tender and mash wth a little milk and butter. Stir in chopped parsley and tarragon and season with salt and pepper to taste.

Process flour, egg, milk, and salt in food processor or blender to make a smooth batter.

Place about 1/2 t. oil in each of six ramekin dishes and place in the oven on a baking sheet for 2-3 minutes until the oil or fat is very hot.

Working quickly, pour a small amount of batter (about 4 t.) into each ramekin dish. Add a heaped T. of mashed potatoes and then pour an equal amount of the remaining batter in each dish. Place in the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes until the purddings are golden brown and puffy.

Using a spatula, carefully ease the puddings out of the ramekin dishes. Serve at once.
