    my German husband loves a little nutmeg in his mash, and a little bit of finely diced raw onion, both added at the end, after they're mashed. Really elevates the humble mash.

    When I make roasted potatoes, I use unpeeled red potatoes chopped into bite sized pieces, seasoned and tossed in olive oil, and straight into a 425 deg F oven. Takes about 30-40 mins from raw to cooked and crispy. My personal secret: season with Old Bay! I've never tried this method for roasting, I'm sure it's delicious, but it also seems like more work and dishes for a weeknight.

  • @gustavkollingnystrm2002
    @gustavkollingnystrm2002 22 дні тому +31

    My favorite way to cook potatoes is just to boil small new potatoes for 10 minutes, and then let them steam for 10. after that I throw them in the oven 220 celsius with shitloads of oil and flaky salt until they look more rinkly and crisp than a 80 year old grandma

    Greetings from lutruwita/Tasmania the best potato state in Australia. Buying a ricer was a revelation. Mash heaven. Dutch creams. King Edwards, Pinkeyes. Yum.

    • @BMALB2023
      @BMALB2023 22 дні тому

      I agree about the ricer! I literally wanted one for a few decades. Thought it was excessive. Used the standard masher. Finally bought the best ricer I could find. INSTANT love! And then I got older, family grown and gone, too old to eat buttery luscious mashed potatoes often= REGRET. 😢
      Buy the ricer people! Don't wait.

      I have a bit of FOMO hearing about all the varieties available in Australia. In the US (at least in the south where I live) we have Russets (starchy), Reds (waxy), and Yukon Golds (all purpose). Maybe it's different in parts of the country where potatoes are more frequently grown.

I've just discovered your channel and I'm very stoked about it, we made fondant potatoes last night to go with our smoked pork tomahawks we cooked on the Weber Family Q with the Smokai Smoke generator, it was like a harmonic generator, it's a modulator type Sunday dinner. Also, I was in heaven watching you and Matt a couple of weeks ago cracking out the classic Kiwi humour, really brought a smile to my face. Epic stuff bro!

    Love your work Andy! No faffing or unnecessary nonsense and, l love that you give heaps of options and the reasons why. I'm 65 and absolutely gob smacked that floury potatoes are not good for roasting. Would never have thought waxy would be better but, l trust you, so will give them a crack next time l make them. Never eaten Fondant potatoes but, they're definitely going on the menu too. Please can you clarify which type of spud l should be using for gnocchi? They never specify in recipes.

  • @KorriTimigan
    @KorriTimigan 22 дні тому +2

    Wait, Dutch Cremes are waxy!? I used to buy these all the time to make my mash when I could afford to shop at Wilson's Fruit and Veg. That is a very misleading name, and it honestly explains why my mash got better recently.

    for the rösti you can dice some onions and mix them into the grated potato, gives it a nice taste.
    we do that often here in switzerland.
    also: some pear slices (from canned pears) and a 50/50 mixture of gruyere and emmentaler cheese, or a pair of fried eggs on top go really well with the rösti.

    I normally don't peel the spuds at home for a mash, was told there's more nutrients in the skin. It obviously makes it harder to get silky mash. Either way I'm lazy so it's just an added benefit. Also smaller cubes if you want to cook faster, if you're trying to time dishes.

    Awesome. I’ll try some of these.
    Hope you had a nice piece of beef to eat all those potatoes with the team!
