Dublin coddle
Recipe by: J. Boyle
A true Irish dish which has been enjoyed for many a year by all Dublin people, soon to be enjoyed by your family over and over again! This is the bare bones traditional recipe but feel free to add garlic, a bay leaf or other fresh herbs for flavour. It's also good if you replace the water with cider.

Beef and Guinness Irish Stew
Recipe by: want2hike
This stew is traditionally for St. Patrick's Day but any time the mixture of the beef and Guinness is awesome! I usually add more beer than the recipe calls for and serve it with mashed potatoes.

Irish Lamb and Parsnip Stew
Recipe by: Ita
Chunky pieces of parsnip add sweetness and fresh rosemary adds a distinct flavour and aroma to this traditional stew. If you use a tougher cut of meat, you can leave it to simmer longer before adding the potatoes. This is fantastic on a cold, blustery day - served with a pint of the black stuff, of course!
Easy
 
 
Irish Champ
Recipe by: Ita
Looks similar to colcannon, but champ is native to the North of Ireland. It's made by blending spring onions with creamy mashed potatoes. Great on it's own, served steaming hot with extra butter which will melt through it. But it's also the perfect side dish for good quality sausages.
Easy
 
 
Bacon And Cabbage Soup
Recipe by: Ita
This is a wonderfully simple chunky soup. I use good quality bacon. It tastes equally good made with pancetta. The dark green colour of the cabbage alongside the tomatoes gives the soup a beautiful colour.
Easy
 
 
Irish Soda Farls
Recipe by: Ita
Soda bread dough is flattened into a round circle and divided into farls, meaning 4 parts. It is then cooked on a dry griddle or pan. Traditionally this was the quickest way to make soda bread for unexpected guests who drop by for a bit of craic (good fun). It's best eaten fresh with butter and jam but is also delicious fried as part of an Ulster breakfast.
