Our Story at Irish Potato Cake Company

"Back in the day, before nuggets or pizza... potato cakes were our childhood treasure."

— Danny Mulligan
Authentic Irish Heritage

The Art of "Left-over Cuisine"

Back in the day, before the arrival of chicken nuggets, pot noodles or fast-food pizzas to Ireland's shores, your typical Irish family meal was jacket potatoes with fresh garden vegetables and meat.

Instead of wasting good food, left-overs were transformed into an extraordinary, sizzling snack.

We removed some skin, roughly mashed the potatoes, added flour, creamy Irish butter, chopped crispy bacon and Dubliner cheese, then pan-fried them until golden brown.

Founded in 2020 by Danny Mulligan from Mullingar, the Irish Potato Cake Company was created to honor this precious tradition. Every cake served in our cafe is made from scratch with that same authentic soul.

The Secret Potato Cake Recipe

Here is how Danny prepares our famous Bacon & Cheddar Potato Cakes right here in Dublin.

Danny's Classic Recipe

Bacon & White Cheddar Cakes

  1. 1
    Select Irish Rooster Potatoes

    Partially peel the potatoes (leaving a hint of skin for rustic texture and earthy flavor).

  2. 2
    Quarter & Parboil

    Boil in salted water until half-cooked. Drain well and let cool thoroughly.

  3. 3
    The Traditional Mash

    Roughly mash with egg, salt, cracked black pepper, chopped crispy bacon, mature white cheddar, parsley & fresh chives.

  4. 4
    Panko Crust & Pan-Fry

    Shape into round patties, coat in crispy panko, and fry on a sizzling hot skillet for 3 minutes each side until golden.

  5. 5
    The Perfect Garnish

    Serve 3 warm potato cakes per portion with fresh salad garnish and authentic Ballymaloe relish!
