One of my happiest memories of all, was sitting with my family in a pub in the Ring of Kerry, eating a shepherd’s pie, followed by an Irish coffee – coffee with whisky and fresh cream on top, and looking over the misty, green hills out the window. It was so chilly and damp, and that meal was the coziest experience I ever had.

Here are 10, delicious, cozy Irish recipes from me, and some of my friends, to share with your family on St. Patrick’s Day.
