Ingredients
- 2.5 lbs potatoes 40 oz
- 15 oz flour all purpose
- 2 tsp baking soda
- 3 tsp salt
- 1 tbsp butter
- 20 fl oz buttermilk
Instructions
- Peel the potatoes. Cut half of the quantity into small chunks, to ensure quicker cooking.
- Submerge them in water, add 1 tsp salt and boil for about 5-7 minutes until soft when pierced with a knife. Drain off the water and mash them using a hand held masher or a fork.
- When the first half of the potatoes are boiling, grate the other half using a box or handheld grater.
- Place the grated potatoes onto a clean cheesecloth or lint free drying cloth. Gather up the corners and sides and squeeze the starchy liquid out of the raw grated potatoes.
- In a bowl, mix the flour, salt and baking powder. Toss the dry grated potatoes with the flour mixture to reduce browning of the potatoes. Add the mashed potatoes to the bowl.
- Add the buttermilk to the bowl and mix everything together using a spatula or wooden spoon. Do not over mix.
- Pre heat an electric flat top griddle to 350 degrees F. Add a knob of butter and when it melts, brush it over the surface to grease it.
- Spoon some Irish Pancake batter onto the griddle surface.
- Fill the griddle with Irish Pancakes. I was able to fit 8 on mine.
- Fry one side of the pancake until golden brown (about 5 minutes) and then flip to allow the other side to cook.
