Irish Potato Farls image

The word farl originates from the Gaelic word fardel meaning four parts. These potato griddle breads can be made with leftover mashed potatoes too. Serve hot with a little butter and salt, or fry them alongside soda bread as part of an Ulster Fry-up.

Time 45m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 4

4 medium potatoes, peeled and halved
1 pinch salt
ΒΌ cup all-purpose flour, plus extra for dusting
1 tablespoon melted butter

Steps:

  • In a pot, cover potatoes with water and bring to a boil over high heat. Simmer on medium-high heat until the center of the potatoes are tender when pricked with a fork, about 20 minutes. Turn off heat. Drain, return potatoes to pot and allow to completely dry out over remaining heat. Mash with a potato masher until smooth.
  • Place warm mashed potato in medium bowl. Stir in flour, salt and melted butter. Mix lightly until dough forms.
  • On a well floured surface, knead the dough lightly. The dough will be sticky. Use a floured rolling pin to flatten into a 9 inch circle about 1/4 inch thick. Cut into quarters using a floured knife.
  • Sprinkle a little flour into the base of the skillet and cook the farls for 3 minutes on each side or until evenly browned. Season with a little salt and serve straight away.

These potato farls were a bit too greasy for my taste. I think I would have preferred them if I had baked them instead of frying them.

I love potato farls! They are so simple to make, and they are always a hit with my family and friends. I usually serve them with butter and jam, but they are also great with eggs, bacon, or sausages.

These potato farls were a bit too salty for my taste. I think I would have preferred them if I had used less salt.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my potato farls turned out really dense and dry. I followed the recipe exactly, but they just didn't come out right.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. I think it could have used some more seasoning.
