So, easter has happened, and daddy dearest made far to much potatoes. We have a large tub of potatoes to use up. Does anyone have any idea on what we can use these for? Sure, tatty-scones (potato pancakes) are a plan, but thats only one thing. Is there anything I can do with these or should I get ready for the potatoapocalypse?
My dad does twice-baked and stuffed potatoes for the holidays every year. He mixes mashed potatoes with bacon bits and cheese, then scoops them out into potato halves and sends them back into the oven. You could probably do something similar, but stuff it into bell peppers to a oid extra potato carnage

How to get them as smooth as the picture?
>>7514305
shepards or cottage pie
Take the potatoes to park to play on the swings and slippery dip.

I've heard potato ricers are really good for this, but I don't have one and make really smooth mashed potatoes by adding a small knob of butter and a bit of hot milk and mashing it with a masher by hand. Then, to get the smallest bits of potato I use a metal whisk and whisk it around for 30 seconds or so and usually that'll get rid of any lumps.

Ricers are a bitch to clean out so make sure you do it over a big bowl so you can scrape the chunks back into it or it makes a mess but they are worth it.
My dad makes amazing garlic mashed potatoes

MAKE SOME MOTHERFUCKING HASH BROWNS NIGGER!
Bubble and squeak (left over mash fried up with leftover cabbage/sprouts). Make sure you fry long enough to get a crispy browned exterior. Serve with ketchup.

Ηow about some Greek skordalia with potatoes?
Ingredients from here https://www.sintagespareas.gr/sintages/skordalia-me-patates.html
4 big potatoes
3-6 Garlick cloves
1 lemon juiced
1/4 spoonful of salt
as much olive oil as it can absorb (about half a wine glass)
Boil the potatoes
blend them along with the garlic, juice and salt
for every potato in, add 3 spoonfuls of water and one of olive oil
if after the second potato the mix is too watery start adding water accordingly
A couple come immediately to mind:
potato pancakes / latkes
Shepherd's pie topping
basis for a potato dough / pizza crust
also potato soup / stew thickener?
>>7516766
Nice call on potato soup! Favorite veggies to also go in the pot for optimal flavor goodness?
>>7516766
>shepherd's pie
>just the topping
Why not thoroughly cover the base and sides with potatoes too? Plus if you add some oil to the base it turns crispy.

pick one you goy
