BOXTY Boxty is seldom made in Ireland now, but I include it here because it will bring back nostalgic memories to many people who remember eating it in their youth. 2 large raw potatoes 2 c. mashed potatoes 1 tsp. salt 1 tsp. baking soda 2 Tbsp. flour (approximately) Grate the raw potatoes and squeeze out the liquid. Add to the mashed potatoes and salt. Mix the soda with the flour and add to the potatoes. Roll out on a floured board to a circle of 1/2-inch thickness. Cut in 4 quarters and put on an ungreased griddle. Cook on a gentle heat for 30 to 40 minutes, turning the bread at half-time. The farls, or quarters, should be well browned on both sides. Makes 4 servings. Sometimes a teaspoon of caraway seed was added to the dough.
