Potato Boxty recipe

This potato dish is a traditional Irish side dish. Serve it up at breakfast or with any meat dish.

225g cooked potatoes
225g raw potatoes
350ml buttermilk
200g flour
1 tsp. bicarbonate of soda
Salt and pepper
Butter to fry

Method of Preparation:

Grate the raw potatoes and mash the cooked potatoes with a fork.
Add the buttermilk, flour, bicarb, salt and pepper, and stir well.
Heat the butter in a frying pan. Meanwhile, make patties from the potato mixture.
