Pretty good! After reading the other reviews, I used the food processor with grater attachment, which I heartily encourage others to use-- so easy!! I would rather to use a sweet onion, and I would mince it rather than chop it next time. The nutmeg was interesting, and played very well with the pepper. It's worth a try with the nutmeg, but I'm not certain I'd use it again.

A super and very authentic recipe for Boxty. I make mine with mashed potato or grated potato, and this recipe worked well with the latter method. I have never added nutmeg before, and I rather liked it - I used lots of black pepper, but not much salt, as I only has salted butter to hand. I was late making this for St Patrick's Day, but I never need an excuse to make this classic recipe - so, thanks Kate for posting a variation on a much loved Irish postao dish.......made for PRMR tag game.

My mother in law used to make these without the nutmeg. I had forgotten all about them and I remember the kids used to love these. I made them just for a change and the kids (though older now) still love them. The nutmeg does add a nice taste to the cakes, and is not as overpowering as I thought it may be. Very easy using a food processor (grater attachment)and very quick indeed, although after all my efforts the son still put his tomato suace on them !!! Thanks Chef Kate

Very easy to make, simple, and inexpensive. Just made this as a quick snack. I used my food processor to chop the onion and it's grater attachment to grate the potatoes, so all-in-all, I think I invested 5 minutes or less on the whole prep. Tastewise, the onion was a little overpowering for us (would probably halve it in the future) and they were a bit underseasoned (didn't really notice the salt or nutmeg over the taste of the onion), but for such a quick and cheap snack or side, it would definately be worth playing with the proportions to make them right for us. Thanks.

This was a great addition to the Irish Stews that were served at the Irish Dinner Night my friends and I held this evening. I admit to having my pan a bit too hot, so my cakes were either burned or not cooked all the way through. I adjusted and the second half of the batch came out beautifully. There were none of these beauties left over. Thank you very much for a satisfying and easy side dish.

We had these potato cakes for breakfast with bacon and eggs. The grated potato texture was a nice change from the pureed type potato pancake mixture we are used to. Nutmeg added a nice hint of flavor to the potato cakes. Thank you Kate for the nice recipe!
