POTATO BREAD: A TRADITIONAL

IRISH
RECIPE
Ingredients:

2 lb Unpeeled potatoes
1 Egg, beaten
1/2 Stick butter
3 T Flour
1 1/2 T Chopped parsley
1 1/2 T Chopped chives
1 1/2 T Chopped lemon thyme
Creamy milk
Salt
Freshly ground pepper
Seasoned flour
Bacon fat or butter for frying

Boil the potatoes in their skins, pull off the skins and mash straight away. Add
the egg, butter, flour and herbs (if using) and mix well. Season with plenty
of salt and pepper, adding a few drops of creamy milk if the mixture is too
stiff. Shape into a 1" round and then cut into eight pieces. Dip in seasoned
flour. Fry in bacon fat or melted butter on a gentle heat.
Cook the bread until crusty and golden on one side, then flip over and cook on
the other side (about 4-5 minutes on each side).
Serve on its own on plates with a blob of butter melting on top.
