1. I bet you could make a decent pizza base using this recipe.

2. Robuchon in shambles

3. Surprised there’s no fat added throughout the whole recipe. It’s just flour, spuds, and salt.

   Is it self raising flour? The fact it rises a bit makes me think it might be.

4. Cool recipe to learn! If she cut it bite-size and boil it she’d have gnocchi, I do it all the time 🙂

5. My mum had that masher! Ah memories!

6. This is how my mam taught me.

   My own recipe uses a lot more flour, self raising and rolled about 1.5cm thick.

   The farl rises in the pan so you can split it lengthwise and spread butter into the fluffy potato inside.

7. I wonder what the best type of spud is for this? I need to make some but I never get the spud type right

8. My mind is blown by an irish 90s mammy having a potato ricer.

9. My dad sometimes made it with Smash. I think we were too poor for actual potatoes.

10. I literally just made this for lunch. Throw in some scallions and cheddar cheese serve with eggs and rashers.

11. Are they not just potatoe scone (tattie scone) which is part of a scottish fry?

12. Great video will be making this tomorrow.

13. Are you supposed to mash potatoes before putting them into the ricer? I never do that!

14. She seems like a lovely Irish mammy, very soft spoken and polite. But take it handy or that spoon will be ’round the back of your head before you know it.

15. More of a regional Ulster recipie

16. Irish gnocchi

17. Potato bread is in fact, shite.

18. i’ve never heard of potato “bread”. This seems like a thinner version of what we called potato cakes.

19. Baguettes are fancy? 😳

20. So… potato farls? I loved those as a kid.

21. Potato cakes are amazing and I love a good Irish stew.

22. I grew up on it and we always called it boxty, in Irish it’s arán bocht tí ..meaning poor house bread

23. I wonder if that was Kerrygold butter.

24. Quality post
