From choice, yes, for me, but if her husband's problem is butter I was trying to find a solution. I'd suggest she separates hers and does it properly!

What are those Canadian ones? With the cheese and gravy? Poutine? I make a basic bitch version but am dying to taste them properly

Dauphinois 👌when I can be bothered.

Scooped out jackets mixed with bacon lardons, onion, cheese and grilled.

King Edward's roasted in beef dripping.

Love them in all form but my favourites probably are…
Baby potatoes in their skin put in a big dish, plenty of oil, salt & garlic. Oven baked, bloody gorgeous.
Peeled potato skins (with a knife so a bit thicker) fried in butter and garlic
Boiled in skin, tossed with butter & chives.
Mashed with butter & either sour or double cream

God I love spuds.🥔🥔🥔

Can you believe we only got them a few hundred years ago? Imagine life without potatoes!😱 Doesn't bear thinking about does it?

Mash potatoes are my favourite.. l even love frozen mash but got to be a certain brand.. 2nd good old roast potato ( maris piper) . Chips and new potatoes/ baked all come in at number 3.. then of course is scallops/ hasslebacks and gosh... are potatoes so versatile.. love them.!

If I was only allowed to eat one food for the rest of my life it would be the potato in all its different forms.

All this love for potatoes!

Ooh-cooked in seawater and served with mojo….

Outrageous response 😮good mash is the creme de la creme of tatties

Burn the witch!!

😂

that's them. I got them as a kid because the fishcakes* were much more expensive and too big for me. But i will be in Sheffield soon and stuffing my face with fishcakes.

*a proper Sheffield fishcake is a thick slice of potato, an equally thick slice of white fish topped with another thick slice of potato, battered and fried. Fish rissoles are ok, but if i ask for a fishcake, that is what i want. The others taste of bitter disappointment if I'm not expecting that.

One of my favourite meals is cheese boats. Delicious.

My disgusting guilty pleasure is leftover mash <I absolutely don’t make sure to do too much every time oh noooo> with stuffing and chopped broccoli made into little cakes and done in a drop of bouillon in the skillet. I usually have it with Quorn nuggets to complete my shuffle of shame

I love potatoes in all forms.
My mum used to make stew (onions, carrots, as much stewing steak as she could afford) and put a LOT of potatoes in it. The potatoes would cook slowly in the stock till they were just on the point of melting. It was so delicious.

Yum yum

I drive 45 mins to buy 20k sacks of potatoes. Totally seasonal, unwashed and bloody lovely! I make homemade chips with them, mash and they roast beautifully.

i also buy my fruit and vegetables from the outlet and they are grown locally. They smell of veg and soil.

Proper New Potato variety, fresh from the ground, 15min simmer, with butter.😎

I have bought red potatoes for Sunday Roast. Very happy.

I could live on potatoes ( and chocolate)

Every time I go to an expensive restaurant I order an extra potato side so I can bring them home in a doggy bag.

If you only had boiled potatoes, I can understand that. Try potatoes cooked in different ways and I bet you’d love them now!

You could do all those posh potato dishes yourself. Mash at £7.50? No way!

I love potatoes too. I can eat sooo many. Too much bread and I feel bloated. Pasta is lovely, but needs something with it. As does rice. But potatoes I can eat on their own. I could eat boiled potatoes with just a bit of salt as my whole meal. Like a pp, I’m from NI and ate a LOT of boiled potatoes growing up. But I absolutely love them. And mash, champ, chips, roast potatoes, baked potatoes. Nothing too fancy mind😆
