Modern Irish Beef Stew with Root Vegetables
A modern Irish home-style beef stew of browned beef, potatoes, carrots and onions slowly simmered until tender. Traditional Irish stew is associated with mutton or lamb; this beef version is labeled honestly to match the dish shown.

Traditional Irish Colcannon with Cabbage and Scallions
Traditional colcannon combines floury mashed potatoes with tender cabbage or kale, scallions, hot milk and plenty of butter.

Traditional Irish Boxty Potato Pancakes
Boxty is an Irish potato pancake made with both raw grated potato and cooked mashed potato, giving it a texture distinct from leftover-mash potato cakes.

Irish Pub-Style Atlantic Seafood Chowder
A contemporary Irish pub-style chowder with potatoes, cream and a mix of Atlantic white fish, smoked fish and shellfish.

Traditional Irish White Soda Bread
A traditional quick loaf leavened only with baking soda reacting with buttermilk; the dough should be mixed lightly and baked at once.

Irish-Style Shepherd's Pie with Lamb
A lamb filling with onions, carrots and peas under a browned mashed-potato topping. Using lamb keeps this a shepherd's pie rather than a beef cottage pie.

Traditional Irish Champ with Scallion Milk
Champ is mashed floury potato enriched with butter and milk infused with scallions, distinct from colcannon because it contains no cabbage or kale.

Traditional Irish Wholemeal Brown Soda Bread
A hearty Irish soda bread made with coarse wholemeal flour and buttermilk, mixed quickly and baked without yeast.

Irish Mashed Potato Cakes with Butter
These Irish potato cakes use cold leftover mashed potato bound with a little flour, then griddled in butter. Unlike boxty, they contain no raw grated potato.

Traditional Dublin Coddle with Sausages and Bacon
Dublin coddle gently braises pork sausages, bacon rashers, sliced potatoes and onions in a light broth; it should remain pale rather than heavily browned.

Traditional Irish Crubeens (Pig's Trotters)
Crubeens are Irish pig's trotters slowly poached with aromatics until tender; they may be served as-is or cooled, crumbed and crisped.

Modern Irish Pub-Style Loaded Baked Potato

Modern Armagh Apple Open Tart

Traditional-Style Irish Potato Soup
A simple Irish-style potato soup in which onion, leek and floury potatoes are simmered until tender, then partly blended and finished with milk rather than made into a heavy cream sauce.

Irish Oat Biscuits
Plain crisp oat biscuits made with rolled oats, flour, butter and brown sugar, presented without invented raisins or American cookie flavorings so the recipe matches the image.

Traditional Irish Bacon and Cabbage with Mustard Sauce
A classic Irish dinner of gently simmered cured back bacon, cabbage and floury potatoes, served with a mustard sauce made from the cooking liquor.

Traditional Irish Barmbrack with Tea-Soaked Fruit
Barmbrack is an Irish fruit loaf associated with Halloween, made moist with raisins, sultanas and currants soaked in strong tea and commonly served sliced with butter.

Traditional Irish Porter Cake with Stout and Dried Fruit
