Potatoes and comfort food

[JellySlice]

AIBU to maintain that there's no such thing as too much butter or soured cream on a jacket potato, and that a mashed potato sandwich between doorsteps of naice white bread is a perfectly reasonable thing to eat?

Yuk

The carbs !?!

Racecardriver, I have had a further thought, a mashed potato sandwich, but fried. Make the sarnie, cut the crusts off, fry gently, flipping over, serve with salad. That makes it healthy.
Mind you, someone on masterchef did eggy bread this week, so who knows what the next big thing will be!

Hmm I don’t think I’d like a mashed potato sarnie, too soft. It puts me in mind of Milhouse’s dad’s rice sandwiches.

Now a chip butty on the other hand...

I did once put some left over pasta in a sandwich which wasn’t as lush as I thought it would be.

I once had a tortilla de patatas (as in proper Spanish omelette from Spain) in crusty white bread. LUSH.

I pretty much mainline hot jackets in this weather. Yet to be convinced on cold mash sarnies though.

Colcannon mash (hot) from M&S is a pmt treat, I'm hungry now.

Ooooo, mashed potato sandwich, haven't had one of those absolutely delightful things for many years. The warm potato melts the butter on the (white) bread to make it even better.

When I was young I would use instant mash and cook a few frozen peas to go in too. It was easier and quicker to do for one person rather than cooking potatoes myself, but I loved that mash with loads of butter anyway.

And you are right, there is no such thing as too much butter etc on a jacket potato.

Never thought of a mashed potato sandwich! Does it stay together ok?
I do love a chip butty though. I can mainline them in the cold weather!

Not sure about cold mash but I quite like a bubble and squeak/roast potato sandwich with Worcester sauce on a cold Monday evening

Lucisky, that reminds me of the bread-and-butter donuts we used to make in the sandwich-maker as students.

Lavishly butter thick white bread. Brush the un-buttered side with milk and put a generous dollop of jam/apple puree/custard/nutella on it. If you're feeling particularly decadent, put a Jaffa Cake in the middle. Top with a similarly buttered and milk-brushed thick slice of white bread, butter side out. Trim crusts. Pop in the sandwich-maker. When done, sprinkle with icing sugar. Lush.

My mum once got given a mashed potato sandwich as her main meal when she was in hospital!

I’ve never eaten a mashed potato sandwich but I totally would. Maybe even a toastie with some spices and onion and stuff, like a samosa.

DM makes extra mash so she can have it cold in a sandwich the next day. She's weird.

Oh I just thought, when I have fish n chips I prefer to eat all the elements together in a buttery, crusty cob, including slashings of curry sauce. Yum!

Have you ever had a butter pie? It's just very soft buttered mash in a pie. It might be a Lancashire thing.

Oh it sounds heavenly!

Mashed potatoe sandwiches?! Are you 5YO OP?!

Potatoe Waffle or hash brown sandwich on the other hand,now you're talking!!
