Mine is potato boulanger where I cook very thinly sliced potato and celeriac layered with fried onions then chicken or veg stock poured over. Cook at 180C for about an hour.
Very nice with sausages or plain grilled meat and green salad.

Mind you, I also like mustard mash!

I'm Irish, how dare you make me choose! Was actually going to start a thread on the many wonderful forms of potato. No need now. I went with mash.

Don't understand the 'new potato' option though. They still have to be cooked! And where is baked potato?

You can pick more than one option. I messed up the poll. I had the options in mind but then forgot a couple when typing them out. That's why there are a couple of repeats and some missing.

Yahoo IM has a great 'drooling' emote. We need something like that for this forum.

I did but not McCanns. I always make my own with some spices oil and baked effectively for 40 mins. Yummy and not so bad health wise either. Hate greasy chips so mine work best for me

Dauphinois potatoes, made with gruyere cheese and cream are my favourite, followed closely by roasties.

I'm an 'Other'

Jacket potatoes all the way for me. The humble baked potato can make a meal of any old stuff in the fridge or store cupboard.

Especially if I can cook them along with something else in the oven to save ££ and/or start them off in the microwave to save time.



But golden finger-burning fish and chip shop chips with salt and malt vinegar come a very close, greatly appreciated second.

I would say roast potatoes too, but I've had as many awful ones as gorgeous ones. But when they're right, they are amazing... <drool>

And boiled new potatoes if I'm being ethereal and good.
