What's your favourite final form of potato for devouring? Roasted? Fried? Mashed? Baked?
I am the final form, perfect for devouring as is or prepared for your pleasure πββοΈ
"Oh, ok, that's interesting.." inches towards utensil drawer
All of them. I don't have favourites.
Me too. I will eat potato in any form.
Hmm. What's at the bottom of the pile then?!
Honestly there's not one that I prefer over the others.
I can tell you I prefer using Spud Lite over all the other potatoes. That's about it.
We love spud lite too. They are capable potatoes!
Burnt or Raw
@StudChud@aussie.zone I believe this is for you.
Microwaved duh. With Heinz baked beans, sriracha, butter, and cheese
It's a toss up between roasted in duck or bacon fat, and mashed with garlic or spring onions. Really couldn't pick between these two formats. Chips don't speak to me in quite the same language.
Huge fan of mash with garlic, really don't eat that enough!
Baked, stuffed ala my Winnie the Pooh cookbook (this means bacon, cheddar, and some form of allium)
Oh yes that's an excellent choice! What other kind of recipes were in this book? I loved Winnie the Pooh growing up and dang near cried meeting Tigger at Disneyland.
Toad in the hole; raisin bread for eating with honey, Cottleston pie.
It's very British, and aimed for under 10s so pretty basic but fun
All of them, depending on the day
I donβt play favourites. All forms of potato are delish.
Air fried waffle fries. Unbeatable.
Condiment of choice?
Nandos peri peri or if being extravagant melted cheese and gravy
Did this in a bracket night. Hot chips won.
Roasted wins in my books. Scalloped potatoes I don't like
I almost feel like hot chips is still too versatile. French fries? Fat cut? Beer battered? Skin on? Chicken salt? Condiments?
I think just the usual sort of hot chips that come from some sort of event. Like the really salty thick cut chips
