Potato Cooking

From our two spud tubs we harvested approximately 60 potatoes
which gave us lots to make several recipes.

But which recipes should we try? 
Yes, I do have a cook book dedicated to potatoes.

We started by boiling some of the potatoes and having a taste test.

Then we mashed some of them for our first recipe.

Added some cheese, a bit of flour and made potato pancakes.

Our second recipe also used mashed potatoes and cocoa.

After mixing in all the ingredients, enjoying the fragrance of the cocoa,
we scooped the cookie dough on to the pan.

Yum, we made chocolate potato cookies and we shared them with our big buddies.

Lastly we made potato chips in the microwave.

Slice the potatoes thinly and soak in water for a few minutes to help remove some of the starch.  Microwave for a few minutes and flip them over then microwave until they are brown and crisp.
