Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Boil potatoes whole, skin-on, in salted water until a fork slides through the center, about 12 minutes.

  2. Step 2

    While potatoes cook, toss cabbage with vinegar, sugar, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Let sit; stir once.

  3. Step 3

    When potatoes are cool enough to handle, peel and grate into a bowl. Fold in flour, salt, and pepper until it holds together.

  4. Step 4

    Heat butter in a large skillet over medium-high until foaming. Press grated potato into 4-inch patties and slide into the pan.

  5. Step 5

    Cook patties 3–4 minutes per side without moving until golden brown and edges crisp. Work in batches if needed.

  6. Step 6

    Serve hot farl alongside pickled cabbage slaw. Finish with a pinch of fleur de sel and cracked black pepper.
