- 15 minutes to make
- Serves 4
Potatoe pancakes is the easiest way to describe boxty. Very popular at barbeques and simple to make. Great if you have left over mashed potatoes
Ingredients
- 2 raw potatoes shopping list
- 4 mashed potatoes shopping list
- 1/2 c. Plain flour shopping list
- 1 c. Chopped green onions --or-- 1 minced onion shopping list
- 1 egg shopping list
- 2 tsp. garlic powder (optional) shopping list
- salt + pepper to taste shopping list
How to make it
- Grate the raw potatoes and miz well with the mashed potatoes.
- Add the salt, pepper, garlic and flour.
- Slightly beat the egg and add it to the mixture.
- Add green onions (or regular onion).
- Add as much milk as you need to make the mixture the same tickness as pancake batter.
- The size you want to make the patties is up to you. I make mine slightly smaller than a pancake.
- Cook over moderate heat for 3-4 minutes on each side or until they are lightly browned
- *****To make it more 'breakfast friendly' add pieces of cooked bacon to the batter*****

My Mom made mashed potato cakes when I was growing up, but I don't think she ever added chopped green onion to the batter. This sounds wonderful. ^5
