Irish Potato Cakes - Boxty

They say everyone is Irish on St. Patrick's Day. Fair enough. Here's an Irish recipe!

I've never been to Ireland, but a Facebook friend of mine from Ireland told me Irish Potato Cakes are very popular in Northern Ireland. She said I made it very well. I could have remade it and flipped it over better, but I left it as is because that's an expected outcome.

This is part of the traditional Irish breakfast fry which includes eggs, bacon, sausage, and fried mushrooms.
