Irish Potato Bread

This is made every year for a local Irish festival. Simple and easy, it's traditionally served as part as the Traditional Ulster Fry with bacon, eggs, sausages, etc., but is great warmed and sprinkled with salt or smothered in butter, cheese, or jam. It's also great with savoury stews.

Thanks DiLo for your Irish Potato Bread recipe. I just came upon it by chance. All of us girls in the family have tried to get "traditional" Irish recipes from our 95 yr. old Mom, but as she says, "It's all in my head, a bit o' this, and a bit o' that. I have tried potato bread, but not exactly the real thing perfected. Yours is and I agree, has to be with an Ulster fry. The Irish sausages are the best. Time for a real feed in Ontario.
