Edited by: Olga Samsonova

Irish potato farls, also known as fadge, are a traditional dish often served for breakfast or as a snack. This recipe provides detailed instructions on how to make them.

Ingredients:

  • 1 kg potatoes, peeled and quartered

  • 50g butter, plus extra for frying

  • 100g plain flour, plus extra for dusting

Instructions:

  1. Boil the potatoes in salted water until tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain well and mash until smooth.

  2. Add the butter, flour, salt, and pepper to the mashed potatoes. Mix well until a dough forms.

  3. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Roll it out to about 1cm thick.

  5. Heat a lightly buttered griddle or frying pan over medium heat.

  6. Cook the farls for 3-4 minutes on each side, until golden brown and cooked through.

  7. Serve warm with butter or your favorite toppings.
