The word farl originates from the Gaelic word fardel meaning four parts. These potato griddle breads can be made with leftover mashed potatoes too. Serve hot with a little butter and salt, or fry them alongside soda bread as part of an Ulster Fry-up.

👨‍🍳 Instructions

In a pot, cover potatoes with water and bring to a boil over high heat.

Simmer on medium-high heat until the center of the potatoes are tender when pricked with a fork, about 20 minutes.

Drain, return potatoes to pot and allow to completely dry out over remaining heat.

Mash with a potato masher until smooth.

Place warm mashed potato in medium bowl.

Stir in flour, salt and melted butter.

Mix lightly until dough forms.

On a well floured surface, knead the dough lightly.

The dough will be sticky.

Use a floured rolling pin to flatten into a 9 inch circle about 1/4 inch thick.

Cut into quarters using a floured knife.
