Boxty, is a traditional irish potato pancake served wrapped around beef, squash and sauce. The dish is popular in Northern Ireland where it is know locally as poundy or poundies; also known as potato bread in Ulster).
There are many different versions but all contain finely grated, raw potatoes, the common version consists of finely grated raw potato and mashed potato with flour, baking soda, buttermilk and sometimes egg.
The mixture is fried on a griddle pan for a few minutes on each side, similar to a normal pancake. Boxty was seen as part of the local culture in the areas in which it was made, that the following poem was written-
Boxty on the griddle,
Boxty in the pan,
If you can't make boxty,
You'll never get a man.
Ordered the beef and guiness one, which consists of beef taken from the carvery and rich gravy sauce and guiness.
The guiness gives it a slight bitter taste, and the pancake is not as light as the pancake/crepe version, it is slighly thicker and moist due to the potatoes.
There are lot so shredded onions in it too, which is a complement with gravy and beef.
Apart from beef, there is also chicken, vegetarian and lamb to choose from.
It would be interesting if they had chili con carne or mexican fillings inside too.
