There are many different recipes but all contain finely grated, raw [[potatoes]] and all are served [[fried]]. The most popular version of the dish consists of finely grated, raw [[potato]] and [[mashed potato]] with [[flour]], [[baking soda]], [[buttermilk]] and sometimes [[egg]]. The grated potato may be strained to remove most of the starch and water but this is not necessary. The mixture is fried on a [[griddle pan]] for a few minutes on each side, similar to a normal [[pancake]]. Traditional alternatives include using only raw potatoes, boiling it as a [[dumpling]] or [[baking]] it as a loaf. The most noticeable difference between boxty and other fried potato dishes is its smooth, fine grained consistency. | There are many different recipes but all contain finely grated, raw [[potatoes]] and all are served [[fried]].
