4-6
ingredients
- 1 cup mashed potatoes
- 1⁄2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1⁄2 cup milk
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt (optional)
- 1⁄2 teaspoon pepper (optional)
- 1 tablespoon butter
directions
- Place potatoes in a batter bowl. Add 1/2 cup flour and 1/2 cup milk or buttermilk and salt and pepper if you are using. Mix together to make a pouring consistency, like a sweet buttermilk-type pancake batter. You can adjust the milk and flour to make the pancake thicker or thinner to your preference. Melt the butter in a 8" frying pan (an omelet pan works nicely) over medium heat. Pour enough mixture just to cover the bottom of the pan. Cook for approximately 5 minutes, flip and cook for an additional 5 minutes for thinner pancakes. If you like a thicker pancake, cooking may take a minute or two longer per side. Remove from pan and place fillings in the center, roll up and keep heated while preparing the rest.
- This is a pretty traditional boxty, but you could add onion powder, garlic powder, or chopped chives to the batter.
- Makes 4 to 6 boxty, depending on how you make the batter.

<p>My children are now both in college, and am currently caring for my Mom who is convalescing from a stroke. Volunteering has been my main form of entertainment outside the home, but getting out and about is hard to manage right now. Recipezaar forums help out, make me feel I'm participating in the real world. Have had many different types of jobs, but would like to go back to school to get an education degree as soon as Mom is better able to care for herself. Imagine! a new teacher over 55! Love baking, and still volunteer to run the Band Booster Bake Sale even though both my kids have graduated out -- the other volunteers and the customers are just wonderful. Besides, who doesn't mind getting repeat requests for one's specialties? <br /> <br /><img src=http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Iwasadopted.jpg alt= /></p>
