Boxty Potato Griddle Cakes Irish Recipe

1/2 lb Raw potato
1/2 lb Mashed potato
1/2 lb Plain flour
Milk
1 ea Egg
Salt and pepper

Grate raw potatoes and mix with the cooked mashed potatoes. Add salt,
pepper and flour. Beat egg and add to mixture with just enough milk
to make a batter that will drop from a spoon. Drop by tablespoonfuls
onto a hot griddle or frying pan. Cook over a moderate heat for 3-4
minutes on each side. Serve with a tart apple sauce: or as part of
an Ulster Fry, with fried bacon, fried sausage, fried eggs, fried
black pudding, fried bread, fried soda bread... . An old poem says: .
Boxty on the griddle, boxty in the pan, if you can't make boxty,
you'll never get a man. . (The accuracy of the poem is uncertain.)
