(If using frozen mushrooms, be sure to defrost and drain first to avoid overly thinning the sauce.) Add mushrooms to skillet and leisurely cook, without crowding them, until golden brown. 4-5 min. Just before they are done, add the garlic, salt, and pepper. Add white wine and stir for 1 minute. Add broth, cream, and parmesan and stir, bringing the sauce to a strong simmer.

When the skillet is hot, pour 3/4 cup batter into the center of the skillet; spread batter evenly (I use the bottom of the plastic measuring cup I used to pour the batter to spread it evenly into a circle). Cook until the top of the boxty appears dry; you'll see the boxty turning a shade darker as it cooks from the outside edges inward. Flip the boxty over using a spatula and cook 3 minutes longer or until golden brown on each side. Remove and keep warm on a plate with a cover. Repeat with remaining batter, coating skillet with cooking spray as needed. Combine4. Once you've made your 4 boxties, spoon 1/4 cup of filling onto the potato pancakes and fold over. Finish by topping each one with the remaining sauce which is usually a tablespoon or two. Serve immediately and enjoy!
