A rustic Irish dish, boxty is made by combining grated raw potato and mashed cooked potato into a batter, then cooking it in a pan. This breakfast pancake is associated with the playful saying, “You can’t be Irish without potatoes—twice!”
Combine the grated raw potato, mashed cooked potato, flour, milk, baking powder, and salt into a thick batter.
Shape the batter into flat pancakes.
Cook in butter over medium heat for 4–5 minutes, turning once, until golden on both sides.
Serve hot.
Best eaten fresh; keeps for 1 day in the refrigerator. Reheat it in a pan to preserve the texture.
