- 1
Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
- 2
In a large bowl, combine the squeezed grated potatoes, flour, baking powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
- 3
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk and eggs. Pour this mixture into the potato mixture along with the melted butter. Stir until just combined to form a thick batter.
- 4
In a skillet, cook the diced bacon over medium heat until crisp. Remove bacon with a slotted spoon, leaving the rendered fat in the pan. Add the chopped onion to the pan and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.
- 5
Add the shredded cabbage to the skillet with the onions and cook until tender, about 8-10 minutes. Stir in the cooked bacon.
- 6
Spread half of the boxty batter evenly in the prepared baking dish. Layer the cabbage and bacon mixture over the batter. Pour the heavy cream over the cabbage mixture, then sprinkle with grated cheddar cheese.
- 7
Spread the remaining boxty batter over the cheese layer. Cover the dish with foil.
- 8
Bake for 30 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for another 15-20 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the bake is set.

Let stand for 5-10 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh parsley.
đĄ Proffstips
- âEnsure potatoes are squeezed very dry for the best boxty texture.
- âDon't overmix the boxty batter, as this can make it tough.
