Writer: Mickey FarmerMickey Farmer

cooked boxty

Our final recipe for Ireland is Boxty. These are basically potato pancakes.  INGREDIENTS

  • 1 ½ cups grated raw potatoes

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour

  • 1 cup leftover mashed potatoes

  • 1 egg

  • 1 tablespoon skim milk

  • salt and pepper to taste

  • ¼ cup olive oil

DIRECTIONS

You grate a couple of potatoes and combine them with mash potatoes, flour, egg, and milk. Then, drop your mixture in pancake sizes onto a griddle (or pan) and cook them on both sides just like you would a pancake.

Once your "pancakes" are golden brown, serve them up and see the smiles they make!
