Err ummm - Tatie Scones/ Potatoe Bread are about the same thing but entirely different from Boxty.The difference is this Potatoe Bread can be baked - but is usualy fried. It is a dough made from boiled mashed taters and flour (do add salt to the flour!!). This is the most basic recipe. Also ,like regular dough, it must be proved!
To Proof Dough - Put in a warm place for a couple of hours and when it starts rising *carefully* place in oven or in this case, the skillet. BTW Potatoe Bread needs only bout half hour to prove.
Boxty is a Batter not a dough! It must be made with grated uncooked taters! Do peel em first:)
