    was in a restaurant in Cavan for a family function recently.
    They had boiled and roasted on the plate... and then came out to each table with mash and chips!!!

    Yes our freind...

    We could never be friends with such a lousy veg but freinds is fine I suppose...

    'what way do you like your?'

    I'll assume that was a misspelling of yogurt...

    Because you're crap.

    :p

    My thoughts exactly. Had to go for the rosties instead, but you wouldn't eat them all the time.

    Mashed not on the list either I see. Worst poll ever, tbh.

    mashed comes from boiled spuds you fool :p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,488 ✭✭✭Goodshape


    and boiled spuds come from spuds.

    maybe you should have left it at just that one option, so as not to make things icky and all.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,496 ✭✭✭*Angel*


    Me loves :D , any way but fried.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,688 ✭✭✭grimloch


    Don't get me started on sauted potatoes.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,163 ✭✭✭✭danniemcq

    I'll do my best not to be such a bitchface in future..

    ..and I guess the rosties will do grand. Like christmas or something. Ta.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,175 ✭✭✭angeldelight


    I would do (almost) anything for a roast potato cooked by my mum! They're delicious :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,386 ✭✭✭✭rubadub


    mashed comes from boiled spuds you fool :p

    Plenty mash baked ones too. That "scientific" bbc food program gave reasons why it is better. leaves them drier to soak up more butter
    Baked should be up there, if you want only 5 get rid of wedges, wedges are simply how you cut them up, you could then boil, fry, deepfry, roast. You could list slices if you have wedges.

    What about garlic potatoes - a big delicacy up north.

    There was some bad news for potato lovers printed in the Indo yesterday. Apparently it's been a very bad harvest this year for Irish grown spuds and the price of our dearly beloved tuber is set to soar.

    Which, no doubt, will give the chippers an excuse to plant another 20c on a bag, as they did during the last bad harvest.

    Roasted are best, but also nice mashed with some chopped scallions or onion through it! NYUM :)


  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 5,555 ✭✭✭tSubh Dearg


    I love mashed potatoes with butter and a little pinch of salt (and on special occasions chives)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,230 ✭✭✭scojones


    It has to be boiled, I can't stand roasted.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,327 ✭✭✭kawaii


    Ugh no!

    Boiled is terrible 'lest one drowns it in butter...

    An article in the Irish Times Weekend Magazine on the "crisis" facing the spud from pasta et al. Very interesting. I'll eat them any way.

    Potatoes are rarely terrible...
    Home cooked potatoes are never terrible! (unless burnt)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,327 ✭✭✭kawaii


    Each to their own...

    I'm really not a big potato fan...

    don't burn me, please...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,496 ✭✭✭*Angel*


    I'm a potato addict... I would DIE on atkins

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,136 ✭✭✭✭is_that_so


    Steamed isn't a real type - only came about cos those vegetable steamers came on the market. Same as boiled - cooked in/with water. :p
