Irish Potato Farls are traditional Irish potato cakes that are simple to prepare and delightfully versatile. Made from mashed potatoes, flour, and butter, these farls are typically cooked on a griddle or frying pan until golden brown. They are commonly enjoyed as part of a traditional Irish breakfast, alongside eggs, and sausages.

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds (about 900 grams) potatoes (such as Russets or Yukon Gold)
  • 1 cup (125 grams) all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 3 tablespoons (45 grams) unsalted butter, melted
  • Additional butter for frying

Notes

  • Leftover mashed potatoes work great in this recipe, offering a convenient way to repurpose them into a delicious new dish.
  • You can customize the farls by adding herbs or spices, such as chives, garlic powder, or black pepper, to the dough for extra flavor.
