Instructions

1. 1

   Place the grated raw potatoes in a clean kitchen towel and twist tightly to squeeze out as much liquid as possible. Discard the liquid.

2. 2

   In a large mixing bowl, combine the squeezed grated potatoes, cooked mashed potatoes, and flour.

3. 3

   Stir in the baking soda, salt, and pepper. Gradually add the buttermilk, mixing until a thick batter forms.

4. 4

   While the batter rests, cook the sausages and bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until browned and crispy. Remove from pan and keep warm.

5. 5

   In the same skillet (or a clean one), melt a tablespoon of butter over medium heat.

6. 6

   Drop large spoonfuls of the potato batter into the pan, flattening them slightly to form pancakes about 4 inches wide.

7. 7

   Fry for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy. Repeat with remaining batter.

8. 8

   In a separate non-stick pan, fry the eggs sunny-side up or to your preference.

9. 9

   To serve, place two boxty pancakes on a plate, top with sausages and bacon, and crown with a fried egg. Garnish with fresh chives.
