BOXTY

Eaten all year round, Boxty is a potato pancake which is tender on the inside while crispy on the outside.

Serves six.

  • 1 ½ cups grated raw potatoes
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup leftover mashed potatoes
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tablespoon skim milk
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • olive oil

Toss grated potatoes with flour in a large bowl.

Stir in mashed potatoes until combined.

Whisk egg and milk together in a separate bowl; mix into the potatoes. Season.

Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Drop in potato mixture, forming patties about 5cm in diameter.

Fry until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate. Serve warm.
