A question about Boxty Potato Cakes?
I've searched for a good potato pancake recipe for nearly 30 years with little success. Finally, last week I was introduced to Boxty Potato Cakes here a YA.
I made some today and I think they are great.
My question is about how to serve Boxty.
Are they served along with sausages or bacon as a breakfast food?
Are they served as a side dish with lunch or dinner as a substitute for bread or other forms of potato?.
Are they served alone as a single dish meal?
If anyone wants to post their favorite potato pancake recipe, or their variation on Boxty, I won't get mad.

Boxty Potato Cakes
1 cup of mashed potatoes
1 cup of grated raw potatoes
2 cups of self-rising flour
1 to 1 ½ cups of milk or buttermilk
¼ teaspoon of salt
¼ to ½ cup of butter
Sour cream, optional
Directions
Mix the mashed potatoes with the grated raw potatoes in a large bowl. Stir in the rest of the dry ingredients and 1 cup of liquid. As the batter is mixed, add small amounts of additional milk or buttermilk until the batter is loose enough to work with. Melt two tablespoons of butter over gentle heat. When the butter is melted and the pan heated, ladle small pancakes into the pan. Brown on both sides and serve hot with more butter or sour cream.

I love potatoes!!!!
Potato Cakes
1/2 lb Raw potato
1/2 lb Mashed potato
1/2 lb Plain flour
Milk
1 Egg
Salt and pepper
Grate the raw potatoes and mix them with the
cooked mashed potatoes. Add salt, pepper and flour.
Beat the egg and add to mixture with just enough milk to make a batter that will drop from a spoon. Drop by tablespoonfuls onto a hot griddle or frying pan. Cook over a moderate heat for 3-4 minutes on each side.
Serve with a tart apple sauce, or as part of an Breakfast.
I eat them by themselves sometimes.
Fry, with fried bacon, fried sausage, fried eggs, fried black pudding, fried bread, fried soda bread.

I have never heard of Boxtys. I love potato cakes, though, and I'll be looking for that Boxty recipe. I would probably eat them as a breakfast side, in place of pancakes. Thanks for posting this, Doc.
YouMadeMeSayIt... You again !!!!!!! I'll be stealing this recipe too :-P Thanks.
