cackleberry Nov 2024 10:21pm, 11 Nov 2024 4,205 posts	0 cackleberry I can never get the mashed potato to fry right. I just have hot mashed potato, instead of fried mashed potato with the nice crispy burnt bits in. What am I doing wrong?
Derby Tup Nov 2024 10:23pm, 11 Nov 2024 68,905 posts	0 Derby Tup These were left over as in left over in a cupboard and on the verge of being slung out. I can’t be arsed with potatoes at all. By the time I have peeled a couple I’d just sling them all out
cackleberry Nov 2024 10:44pm, 11 Nov 2024 4,207 posts	0 cackleberry I love potato - mashed, chips, jackets are best. Roasties I can take or leave, but the ones you posted look good and boiled spuds are just a bit dull. Love pasta more though! Carb me up!
Derby Tup Nov 2024 10:54pm, 11 Nov 2024 68,907 posts	0 Derby Tup Pasta and baked goods yes. Rice unless it’s fried no. Cous cous yes. Potatoes not really
cackleberry Nov 2024 10:57pm, 11 Nov 2024 4,208 posts	0 cackleberry Rice, yes in all it's forms. Cous cous, meh. Baked goods, oh yes; pastry not so much.
Vixx Nov 2024 11:11am, 12 Nov 2024 2,254 posts	0 Vixx I was watching a Christmas cooking show last night (it was on and I have never seen this 'chef' before on TV despite her being very well known, so I was also a bit mesmerised by the double entendres and the food). She was cooking a side dish of cheesy potatoes, pasta and sprouts. The question for me is - would you add bacon to that or is that overkill? She didn't. My personal thought is that it would be better with bacon bits in.
