Ingredients
1 cup raw, grated potatoes
1 cup leftover mashed potatoes
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 tsp baking powder
2 tsp salt
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1/4 cup (about) milk to mix
Butter or oil for frying
Boxty - Irish Potato Cakes
by Irish Central Magazine
Directions
Place the grated raw potatoes in a clean cloth and twist to remove excess moisture. Whisk together flour, salt, and baking powder. Combine the flour mixture with the raw potatoes, the leftover mashed potatoes, and the eggs. Add enough mix to make a batter. Heat a heavy skillet over medium heat and add butter or oil. Drop potato batter by the tablespoon into the hot pan. Brown on both sides (about 4 minutes per side). Butter each Boxty and serve hot with or without sugar.
I may be one of your longest members having had a box since 94? 95? With a few little gaps perhaps… So why do I love my box? The veg taste lovely and fresh - my son eats them like sweeties and I cook more interesting recipes.
