  minutes on each side.  Serve with a tart apple sauce:  or as part of
  an Ulster Fry, with fried bacon, fried sausage, fried eggs, fried
  black pudding, fried bread, fried soda bread... . An old poem says: .
  Boxty on the griddle, boxty in the pan, if you can't make boxty,
  you'll never get a man. . (The accuracy of the poem is uncertain.)
