Time 55m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

8 ounces (225 grams) freshly cooked potatoes
8 ounces (225 grams) peeled raw potatoes
8 ounces (225 grams/ generous 1 1/2 cups) white flour
1/4 American teaspoon baking powder (1/2 Irish teaspoon bread soda), sifted *see note
8 to 12 fluid ounces (225 to 300 millileters/1 to 1 1/2 cups) buttermilk
Pinch salt (optional)
Butter, for frying

Steps:

  • Peel the cooked potatoes while they are still hot, drop into a bowl and mash immediately. Grate the raw potatoes, add to the mashed potatoes with the flour and sifted bread soda. Mix well, and add enough buttermilk to make a stiff batter.
  • Heat a frying pan, grease with butter and cook large or small pancakes in the usual way. Eat them straight from the pan with butter, crispy rashers or pure Irish honey.

THE BEST CHEDDAR AND HERB CHAFFLE



The Best Cheddar and Herb Chaffle image

A chaffle is a low-carb, cheese-and-egg-based waffle that's taken the keto world by storm, thanks to its fluffy texture and crispy edges. We opted to use Cheddar for the cheese and added scallions and parsley for a sweet and savory twist on the popular dish. For the fluffiest chaffle, use only finely shredded cheese--it will blend better with the egg than large shreds.

Time 30m

Yield 2 to 4 servings (makes about 4 chaffles)

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 large eggs
2 cups finely shredded mild Cheddar
2 scallions, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh parsley
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Nonstick cooking spray
Unsalted butter, for serving
Sugar-free maple syrup, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat a waffle iron to medium-high. Whisk the eggs in a large bowl until well beaten and smooth. Whisk in the Cheddar, scallions, parsley, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper.
  • Coat the waffle iron with nonstick cooking spray, then ladle a heaping 1/4 cup of batter into each section. Close the lid and cook until well browned and fluffy, 4 to 5 minutes. Use a small offset spatula or tongs to transfer the chaffles to a serving plate. Repeat with the remaining batter.
  • Top each chaffle with a pat of butter and drizzle with maple syrup.

Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

8 ounces grated raw potato
6 ounces mashed potato
8 ounces all-purpose flour
1 pint milk
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, for seasoning, plus 1-ounce cracked black pepper, for filling
18 (2-ounce) Irish fillet medallions
2 large onions, sliced
6 large flat field mushrooms, roughly chopped
2 ounces Irish whiskey
1 pint cream
Salt
Watercress, for garnish

Steps:

  • Boxty Mix:
  • Wash and drain the raw potatoes at least twice to remove all starch. Place the raw and mashed potatoes in a large pot, add the flour and milk. Season and blend to a smooth consistency. Drop a small ladle full onto a hot griddle; push the mixture from the center outwards with the bottom of the ladle, cook for 2 minutes then flip the boxty over and cook through. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Gaelic Filling:
  • Sear the fillets on both sides in an oiled, well-heated pan, remove from the pan and set aside. Fry the onions and mushrooms until soft, add the whiskey (careful not to burn your eyebrows off), add the cream, cracked pepper and season with salt, to taste. Reduce a little then return the fillets to the pan continue cooking until the sauce thickened to the right consistency.
  • Gaelic boxty:
  • Place 3 medallions onto each hot boxty, cover with sauce and roll over to make an omelette shape spoon some sauce on the top and garnish with watercress.

Tips:

  • Use cold, freshly grated potatoes. This will help the boxty to be crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the boxty tough.
  • Cook the boxty over medium heat. This will help them to cook evenly without burning.
  • Serve the boxty hot with your favorite toppings. Some popular options include butter, sour cream, chives, and bacon.

Conclusion:

Cheddar and herb boxty is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own personal preferences. So next time you're looking for a new recipe to try, give cheddar and herb boxty a try. You won't be disappointed!
