Irish Potato Bread/Farls, Tattie Griddle Scones or English Potato Cakes? Recipe and controversy!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 сен 2024
- Now, far be it from me to commandeer the food culture of another country but I hereby claim potato farls, or tattie scones, for the Queen of England - and they will now be officially forever known as potato cakes. I'm doing this of course due to my massive sense of entitlement as an Englishman as I hold on to the idea that we are still somehow, some kind of major world power.
This is not delusional thinking in any way. But you would have to be deluded to believe that this simple griddle scone isn't an absolutely cracking recipe. So simple and yet so satisfying. So don't worry about its origins. Just make it and then eat it with no sense or admission of guilt.
Enjoy!
Potato farls or tattie scones or potato cakes full recipe
400g cooked potato
80g all purpose flour
A third of a teaspoon of salt
50g melted butter
Cook on each side in a preheated, lightly floured pan for 5 minutes per side.

Being from Northern Ireland and also born and bred on the banks of the river Lagan in Belfast, we call them potato bread farls. Also, we made them to go with the good ole Ulster fry along with a soda farl. Nothing better! 🍀💚
I love them with just butter on them too but in a fry they’re dead on 👍🥰
“ SMOOTH AS AN OLD MANS SHINS “ 🤣🤣🤣🤣. Great video 👍👍👍
How the back catalogue comes through. As a kid Potato cakes, buttered - well margarine, and baked beans for tea. Classic.
So happy i have found this channel. I moved to the US in 2006 from Manchester and i have missed these things so much!
Ive just discovered you as Im seeking a potato cake recipe and i just have to say you are hysterical!! Keep on, you have brightened my day!
Well thanks to you too. You brightened my day as well 🙂 Thanks for watching!
I
'm from Northern Ireland and it was so good to see you making potato farls.While the potatoes were drying we put a clean dish drying cloth on top of them.
They look great. I like to add an egg or two to the mix and a bit more flour. Then I fry them (in rounds like your second batch) in a mix of butter and oil until slightly puffed up and golden brown. Delicious!
Awesome as a Lancashire Lass now living in Australia these are one of the things I miss the most looking forward to giving them a go
Lancs Lad now in Canada so making these do miss em.
Same, Manc in Aus!! He makes it look really easy but we'll see 🤣
Let me take nowt for granted, this is unleavened brilliance 👏🏽
Thanks to your lovely local accent (I’m a Northern Lass) and humour to match, I find your presentation so simple to understand that I will be able to satisfy my Son with his favourite chomp after spending over 40 years of mithering me to learn! Feeding 3 adults and 6 children, along with several neighbours, is going to use up all my flour (I bought 16kgs by mistake!) and this recipe is perfect - Wish me luck!
Best of luck. Sounds like you'll be at the stove for a while. I promise it will be worth it when you eat these potato cakes though. Thanks for watching ❤
I subscribed just to hear you talk while you're cooking. Though I needed to slow down your speech as English is a foreign language. Love your ironies. And by the way, the recipe too. I'll try it. And thanks for not asking us to subscribe.
My Nan would make these for us as kids with gallons of butter on them and put a fried egg on the side. I make it for myself now. Absolutely gorgeous
Great video.. love the humour and now know where I was going wrong.. I’ve never added butter.. this northern lass appreciates..👍
Reminder set! Because I cannot miss this premiere of a the Teeside Legend!
Oh my god! How have I only just found this channel. It’s amazing!!!! 😂
Yer outta ordher mate :-). My wife and myself had a good laugh watching this. Irish immigrant here Stateside …. Very enjoyable and we will subscribe
Funny this guy 😂😂😂 only just discovered him. Subscribed straight away after one vid
Love your content and, as a Yank, I am learning a lot of the vocabulary of England and, more specifically, Teesside. The stories that you share are so entertaining (job interviews, Rita, Mr. Chevrolet, poor Jimmy Kipling, etc.) One day when you have a show on BBC television, I'll be able to tell folks that I "knew" you when you had 60 subscribers on RUclips. Keep calm and carry on, mate. :-)
Haha if I get a show on the BBC I promise to wear a t shirt with your name on for the first show. Thanks for stopping by again and I'm glad that you actually understand most of what I say. They say we're two nations separated by a common language so if you do ever have any problems with the vocabulary or my Teesside accent let me know and I'll be happy to translate into American English ;o)
Been wondering where you are from. I always go to the dales. For my family and me, it's a bit of heaven on earth there. Your accent is familiar to me. And you can get familiar with me anytime...no, I would need to be 40 years younger. Such bad luck. 😂
My Nana (Lancashire) & Mum (G. Manchester) made these from a early as I can remember - always called them potato cakes. They used to shape the potato mix into a large sausage shape, then slice into rounds, shape on a floured board to coat and smooth the edges... absolutely delicious! 😍 Love the presentation & humour BTW 😂
Oh by jaybus you had me in stitches there😅😅😅
😊 grew up with these in the usa, called them potato cakes. Could serve them so many ways. Best always with lashings of butter and a runny fried egg.
My grandmother side is Irish from Roscommon .. she made it with buttermilk.. I’m from Co Durham
Very entertaining, love potato cakes with lots butter and salt
I remember having one of these for the first time pan friend. My life changed forever that day.
Love your banter long live the revolutionary’s haha 😂
Thank you very much.
You are welcome!
Have you heard of "boxty" .. in North West Ireland they are a type of potato cake but with raw potato... they are epic!
I've heard of them but haven't made them much. Will give them another go soon. Thanks for jogging my memory
So yumie just sent for a potato ricer they look good to use I call them potato cakes can wait to make um. Xx 😊
Who knew that potato cakes could be so SPICY
I absolutely love your personality. As a fellow English citizen I approve of the name potato cakes 😂 that is exactly what these are. And now I know how to make my own so cheers for that.
Cheers for that. Thanks for watching ❤
He didn't invent the name that's what everybody calls them
Best recipe so far
turned out great and love ur bannter x
Im from the USA but live in the UK for 7yrs and I use to get these potato cakes in ASDA in a package. I would pop then in a skillet for a minute to heat them up and cover them in some butter and eat them with a cuppa. They were lovely. Im going to make these. Thank you for the recipe.👍In the USA we make them with left over mashed potatoes and egg, so they are a bit different.
I used to buy these from ASDA too. They were rectangular shape. I can tell you that these taste exactly the same as the ASDA ones as that was what I was aiming for 👍
@@TheTeessideChef Thats awesome! Cant wait to make them. They are much nicer then USA ones.😁
Great stuff more fun listening to your patter than watching the recipe ( there good as well ).
Haha cheers mate
Smart and im from darn sarf geezer 😉
LOVELY... THANK YOU! FUN TO LISTEN TO!
Thank you too!
yum yum
00:17 How true ! :) Thanks for the fun & greetings from Ireland
Well, it was an English bloke who stole, sorry, discovered the potato in the New World. I'm from Lancashire and these are an old tradition for the potato harvest. We call them potato cakes.
So in my house this is potato farl/bread! Potato cake for us has less flour, egg instead of butter, is in flattened rounds about an inch thick and fried with a bit of oil on the pan, absolutely delicious!!
My mum called these Potato cakes Sunday supper.i never knew how they were made no very domesticated
I am going to try the. This weekend. Way
Too much stupid talk.
Best things ever 😊
Now I'm hungry
Try a version using smash. Great if you’re stood there on a hangovered Sunday morning and don’t have any potato cakes when wanting a full English ;)
The genius of this idea has blown my mind
If you are talking about the " instant" mashed potato, "Smash", then that may be a little sloppy. Unless you're using it dry and the butter is the reconstituting liquid... idk.
I went looking for potato farls/cakes/scones and found your recipe.
In the early 80s my N Irish mate used to share his, that his Ma posted to him, when we all lived in London! My Scots friend has also fed me potato cakes for brekkie and now I can make them for myself.
I did linger because of your history lesson, which I LOVED, and have subscribed because of it.
Good food and power to the people mate. ✌🏻
Cheers mate. Glad you enjoyed the vid and thanks for sharing your story 👍
Your Scottish pal served ye Tattie Scones, ye mean😊
F**k me, there is a night and day difference coming from Kay's Cooking channel to watching The Teeside Chef 😂
I wish I had as many views as her 🤣
In my part of Northern Ireland ( Co. Down ) we call it slim. Might I suggest farling them as soon as you put them in the pan before they form their delicious crust.
Smashing video
Love the comedy 😂
My x father in law was from Ireland and he would make them and fry in bacon grease, with eggs ,oh man they were good ,he called them slim.
Sounds awesome mate. I'm going to have to give that a go as I make these quite regularly. Any idea why they were called slim?
As a boro lad looking for this recipe all i can say is thankyou sir , time to commence the tattie bread making
Cheers mate. Hope they work out for you.
Mammy.......is it ready yet.......
look a lot better than a lot ive seen made in belfast
I like how you fried the first set in one big piece. I'm thinking of trying to make these but putting cheese in the middle of two pieces, then squeezing them together and then frying it. I usually buy these at the supermarket and then grill some cheese on the top, but when I make these myself I will put the cheese in the middle and cook it all together to save time.
That's a great idea. Never thought to try that myself. Would be interested to hear how that turns out.
@@TheTeessideChef .I just hope it stays together while frying. I'll let you know how it turns out.
Reading your post aloud it sounded like an American giving a special order at a fast food joint! ROFL!
You can cut the large circle into 1/4s before cooking, not during or afterwards...easier to handle.
You know, I find it more difficult to handle that way but I would bet that you're more experienced than I am ❤
@@TheTeessideChef No I'm not more experienced. But since you cut out smaller circles at the end and had no problem, not sure how four quarters would be much different.
Not entirely Scottish. So no need to give them a nationality! They were made in War Time England. BTW the Queen is the crowned Queen of Scotland ,too.
My question is us, are these faster to make than chips? 🤔
I’ve just found u and farl is Irish for quarter 👍🥰
as a Scot I actually prefer the Irish potato farls.. my partner is Northern Irish and I'm a glaswegian and visiting his family I always get the Irish soda bread or potato farls his mother makes.. absolutely amazing.. unlike our wee flat skinny tattie scones..lmao. here's a correction.. potato cakes.origin Punjab region,,, potato scones origin here in Scotland,,, potato farls origin Northern Ireland specifically Belfast.. guess who stole what from who eh??
As an Irish person I enjoyed the genocidal colonial references, making it now (the potato farls not the genocide)
I can smell it already
Lots of Irish blood in Teesside
Absolutely mate. I think people tend to forget this to be honest. We had the second largest Irish community after Liverpool once upon a time. I reckon it's had a bigger influence on the way we are on Teesside than people realise.
NO BECAUSE THESE ARE SO CUTE AND TASTY THOHGH. AS A BRITI CAN CONFIRM THAT THESE ARE SO GOOD!!
In Ireland we call them potato bread, or fadge.
I finally found you! Subscribed before 3 min. Came for a recipe stayed for the comedy. Too many utubers play dumb. They come off as fake. You fire off brilliant political jokes for my taste.
Love your work coming from N. Florida, USA
Thanks mate. Really appreciate that 👍
How man yer dinnit mak them round. yer mak them into triangles and yer eat them warm with a bit of butter. Eeeee worrayelike!!
I subscribed for the political analysis fritters.
I eat em all the time - like this if poss, if not with cadbury's smash
no butter
If you cut it in Quarters first, it would make it easier.
He did if you watch the video to the end.
Try a pizza cutter. ?
made me laff mate
That was the funniest recipe I've ever watched, been practicing normal farls after recent trip to Belfast so will definitely give this spud farl a go.
Can you freeze them after cooking? Or before
They freeze really well after cooking so I recommend that 👍
Bonkers
Can I cook them in the oven?
I've never tried to cook them that way so have no idea how they would turn out. Sorry 🙁
Potato fritters mate
Tattie scones!
Made an arse of them, i will not be on Bake off anytime soon.
What's going on here. Don't tell English people its that easy! Geeezzzz they wont pay a £1 for 1p scones.
Tattie Scones are not the same as potato cakes, they taste different, I have tried both. The N. Irish started eating potato scones because of the Scottish Plantation.
The northern Irish don’t eat potato scones they eat Irish potato bread. I have never seen one person eat a potato scone in Northern Ireland it’s Irish soda bread and potato farl
@@siofra3819 what we call scones you call bread, ie Soda Scones, Tattie scones and the word farl is Scottish in origin
The Ulster Scots in Co.Antrim call these fadge.
Funny guy 🤣
Just a wee tid bit, us Scottish hate being called British as much as the Irish do! You’ll never find a Scot that will call themselves british before Scottish.
P.s they’re definitely tattie Scons pal
As a Scouser I'm definitely British before I'm English.
Came for the potato cakes. Stayed for the political insight.
Love the comments on britains imperialism. Made me laugh a lot. By the way that looks like a non stick pan, if thats the case i would recoment not using steel utensils on it because it destroys the coating. Now that isnt dangerous, but it removes the non from the non stick part of the pan, and thats kind of inconvinient
Thanks mate. Glad you liked it.
Says the Brit that has a German as head of state.🤣🤣
Potato Farls are nice though.
I have her fragrant image tattooed on my face as a constant reminder of her grace
@@TheTeessideChef
🤣🤣👍
Tatie scones end of !
I will add though, and don’t ask me why, but the Scot’s love the geordies. It’s like we don’t class them as English cause they’re just over the border or something 🤣 but seriously, I think it’s cause they can have the craic. Geordies are about the banter as much as the Scot’s are. Whereas the rest of the English tend to be more uptight and not much of a humour. Up the geordies man. 🙌🏴🥰
I hope you're not calling me a Geordie mate. Anymore of that and I'll start calling you one of the queen's subjects 🤣
Not met scousers then ?
This is funny. They've done genetic research and guess what? People from North of the Tyne are genetically closer to the Scots than they are to southerners. The Roman wall was a more accurate border than we thought. Gan canny pet. 😊
Funny guy
I thought this was just going to devolve into a political rant and the potato cake would be forgotten.
So you call them potato cakes huh? Hmmm, controversial
Potato bread
😂😂
We are from the North of Ireland WE ARE IRISH FORCED UNDER BRITISH RULE ITS NOT A BRITISH THING ITS IRISH ITS POTATOE BREAD ITS IRISH NOT ENGLISH WELESH OR SCOTTISH ITS IRISH 🤬
Sorry, but this a traditional Jewish recipe. The Irish stole it from us. To each his own.
No no no no ,I'm English born to Irish parents ,it's not a bloody crumpet you heathen, it's a staple mate of the good old English...I mean Irish fry up, now go and think about what you've done
😆 I don't remember calling it a crumpet in this video but if I did I'm more than happy to stand in the corner with a dunce's hat on
@@TheTeessideChef haha I was more commentating on you eating it just with butter ,where as my Irish family made them as staple mate of the good old fry up,but I'm glad your making people aware how lovely this is a dish
Comedy really aint your thing but thanks for the recipe
Aek, video was good until you made the joke about kicking the dog. Not funny, not cool.
I don't really kick dogs Angela. Come on
It’s interesting to see that someone genuinely thinks that joking about genocide is funny.
