Incorporating Irish potatoes in my diet is a tradition I’ve kept up with for a long period of time. To me, this is a clean getaway from the usual carbohydrate sources like rice and yams. It’s rich in complex carbohydrates , High in dietary fiber and a very good source of vitamin B6, Vitamin C, Manganese, Copper, phosphorus, niacin and minerals such as potassium, magnesium and iron. It’s also a versatile dish which could be eaten with almost anything. I had mine with Tomato egg Sauce, But this was because i ran out of fish to make Smoked fish stir fry. It could also go well with Beef stew or Chicken curry (Veggie chicken gravy), Barbecued fish, the list is endless. Click Here to view the full list of stews and sauces to go with this dish

Sweet lovely cook. I'm impressed. I thought I loved making food until I jam your blog like train yesterday. Can I get your pin so I can send you some recipe of whatever I make too. Thanks for making our home become a surprise each day.
i've always enjoyed boiled potatoes and egg sauce… Dis really looks delicious. welldone dear
I make this dish a little bit differently, by boiling whole, peeled irish potatoes in meat stock, before deep frying. The crunchy exterior of the potatoes and all that yummy softness inside each is a perfect combination 🙂
P.S. I love the way you use photography to make the food come alive. Good job!
Nice….the salt look too much though
yaayyy!!! Thanks Amaka. you can send the recipes to me at dobbyssignature@gmail.com.
Using meat stock sounds like a very good idea. would definitely try that out soon. Thanks Olaedo :D.
Thank you Quin 🙂
it sure does…lol! But in the end, it ends up just right. Very little would be consumed since the boiling liquid would be discarded before frying. Less salt makes it taste bland.

Could you pls do a post on Potato salad? I have forgetten how to make Yam balls, can you help out with that as well? Is it also possible to interchange potato for the yam, when making Yam balls? I am not talking about Ojojo (balls made from water yam) This snack is made with regular yam. I grew up eating it, but it's been years since I came across it, and I would like to give it a try myself.
okay Anon, would work on the mentioned dishes.
