Ingredients

  • 8 ounces (225 grams) freshly cooked potatoes
  • 8 ounces (225 grams) peeled raw potatoes
  • 8 ounces (225 grams/ generous 1 1/2 cups) white flour
  • 1/4 American teaspoon baking powder (1/2 Irish teaspoon bread soda), sifted *see note
  • 8 to 12 fluid ounces (225 to 300 millileters/1 to 1 1/2 cups) buttermilk
  • Pinch salt (optional)
  • Butter, for frying
  • *Note: an Irish tablespoon is the same quantity as an American tablespoon plus a teaspoon

Directions

Peel the cooked potatoes while they are still hot, drop into a bowl and mash immediately. Grate the raw potatoes, add to the mashed potatoes with the flour and sifted bread soda. Mix well, and add enough buttermilk to make a stiff batter.

Heat a frying pan, grease with butter and cook large or small pancakes in the usual way. Eat them straight from the pan with butter, crispy rashers or pure Irish honey.

    This was my first experience with boxty and I can tell this recipe is a keeper. I had to experiment a bit to find the right consistency for the batter since I didn't see the show in which this was prepared, but even the "mistakes" were tasty. Mmmmmmmmm!

    We had boxty in Dublin and I was hoping to find an equitable recipe here....and I did. Served it as we had there, a main dinner course. I made beef stew with ale and mushrooms, topped the boxty with it and we had a wonderful St. Patrick's Day dinner. Finished it all with Pavlova...it was very special.

    I was looking for a recipie which comes out like a pancake instead of hash browns. This is it folks. Light, and incredibly delicious.
