Irish Mashed Potato

In following with my (unnatural) obsession with the worldly variations of the humble mash potato here is a terrific recipe for the Irish Mashed Potatoes. If this doesn’t tickle your fancy you could try theHungarian Mashed Potato Recipe or perhaps the French Mashed Potato is more your style?
