Boxty is a traditional Irish potato dish made from grated raw potatoes mixed with mashed potatoes, flour, and buttermilk, and then fried in a pan until crispy and golden brown. It can be served as a main dish or as a side, and is often accompanied by bacon, sausages, or eggs. Boxty is popular in Ireland and is considered a comfort food by many Irish people. Its origin dates back to the 17th century when potatoes were the main staple in Ireland and were used in various dishes as a way to stretch meals and make them more filling. The addition of flour to the potato mixture helps to bind the ingredients together, making a hearty, flavorful dish that is enjoyed by generations of Irish people.
