     NOTE:  Boxty is the traditional Irish fare for Shrove Tuesday.
  Composed of grated raw potatoes, mashed cooked potatoes, with flour
  added as a binding agent, Boxty is either fried in a pan or browned
  on a griddle. It is mentioned in a traditional children's Irish
  jingle:
  
                          "Three pans of boxty, baking all the day,
                           What use is boxty without a cup of tay?"
