Boxty

Ingredients

  • 1 egg
  • 1/4 cup (50ml) light (single) cream
  • 9 ounces (250g) baking or russet (floury) potatoes, peeled and coarsely grated
  • 2 tablespoons (15g) all-purpose (plain) flour
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons (25g) butter

Instructions

Step 1

In a bowl, whisk together the egg with the cream. Add the potato and flour, season with salt and pepper, and stir to mix. The mixture will be slightly runny.

Step 2

Melt the butter in a frying pan over medium heat. Add the potato mixture and cook for 8 to 10 minutes on each side, until the surface is golden brown and the potato is cooked through. Remove to a serving plate and cut into wedges to serve.
