Todays experiment.... Boxty

I've decided to try some new things this semester, and today I will try to make Boxty. This should be easy, since the main ingredients is POTATO ( big surprise isn't it..) Well, I hope it will be eatable....
Here is the recipe:

• 1 1/2 cups grated raw potatoes
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 cup leftover mashed potatoes
• 1 egg
• 1 tablespoon skim milk
• salt and pepper to taste
• 1/4 cup olive oil

1. Toss the grated potatoes with flour in a large bowl. Stir in mashed potatoes until combined. In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg and skim milk; mix into the potatoes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
2. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Drop in the potato mixture, forming patties about 2 inches in diameter. Fry on both sides until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate. Serve warm. 

I prefer to use butter instead since it tastes better. 
Eat them with black pudding, fried eggs and bacon. I promise you: you will NOT feel hungry after this meal

I made it! They were very good, so I will make them again some other day  ;)


And a little poem about them:


'Boxty on the griddle, boxty on the pan; if you can't make boxty, you'll never get a man'
