These boxty are far more popular than the other Irish recipes (green cupcakes, anyone?). Boxty is so ingrained in Irish cooking, there are many rhymes about it. One goes: “Boxty on griddle, boxty in the pan. You won’t get a man if you can’t make boxty. Some say that you won’t get a man if you don’t eat boxesty. These delicious potato pancakes are a great way to enjoy Irish food.
