Ingredients

"Boxty on the griddle,

boxty in the pan,

if you can't make boxty,

you'll never get a man."

1 lb. of potatoes, grated

3-3/4 cups All-purpose flour

1 cup milk, preferrably 2% or Homogenized

2 Tablespoons warm water

1 teaspoon baking soda

2 Tablespoons butter or margarine

1 cup mashed potatoes

salt and pepper to taste

Note: I always make these when there are leftover mashed potatoes. By doing so it cuts down on prep time.

Directions

Soak grated potatoes overnight in cold water to remove

the starch.

Mix all ingredients together EXCEPT the flour.

Mix All-purpose flour in a little at a time with a wooden

spoon or your hands.

Add extra milk if it seems too stiff.

Lightly grease an iron skillet or griddle.

Drop the mixture onto the skillet by rounded teaspoons.

Brown the bottom slightly, then flatten the tops a little

bit with a spatula.

Depending on what you prefer they can be thick or thinner and crispy.

Cook until golden brown. Served with butter or sour cream.

Note: Herbs such as parsley can be added.

Mmm ... last I had these was in a pub in San Francisco. I think they were served with smoked salmon and sour cream. Man that was good, I can taste it now.
