Answer 1

This is a recipe from my (Irish) Great Grandmother, she put the potatoes in the stew but, I see no reason why you couldn't omit them and have mashed on the side.

Answer 2

Normally the Dubliner is served more often than the Belfast variety.
It is very easy to make. Start with the ingredients for a Dubliner and use peppercorns instead of rye seed. The peppercorns should not be crushed. Use them whole and you have it.
Serve with hot out of the oven Killian dilner bread and you have a feast suited for a king. Top of the morning to you!
