NOTES : Boxty is the traditional Irish fare for Shrove Tuesday. Composed of

grated raw potatoes, mashed cook potatoes, with flour added as a binding agent,

Boxty is either fried in a pan or browned on a griddle. It is mentioned in a

traditional children's Irish jingle: " Three pans of boxty, baking all the day.

What use is boxty without a cup of tay? "
