Despite multiple trips to Ireland, I have failed miserably at taking an important culinary opportunity. I’ve read about it, and put it on the agenda, but pudding, scones, and chips always get in the way of Irish Boxty.
I decided not to adapt the recipe at all other than leaving out the bacon, so you can head over to Edible Ireland for the Boxty with Bacon and Scallions recipe. While you are there, take a look around. It is one my favorite new-to-me blogs in 2012.

Those look great. The raw/cooked mix sounds really interesting. (My mom, too, made pancakes out of leftover mashed potatoes and I always loved them!)
These are so well shaped and cooked potato patties! Such a lovely way to use left over potatoes!
St. Patty’s day may be gone, but I have this recipe to keep me feeling green til 2013. Thank you!
Wow. This looks delicious! Anything potato is a-okay in my book.
I NEVER crave regular potatoes but now I totally am. Apparently I need some boxty in my life! These sound so delicious.
So glad to hear you enjoyed the boxty, yours look fantastic. Thanks for sharing! x
Michelle – The mixture makes for a great final product.
Katerina – I had some help with the shaping. It helps to use a biscuit cutter. 🙂
OysterCulture – I’ll likely pull it back out when the summer potatoes start showing up!
A Taste Of Madness – We are big potato fans too. They get such a bad rap because people only seem to associate them with French fries! 🙂
Joanne – Yes, you need boxty! 🙂
Kristin – Thank you for the inspiration!
