There's more to potatoes than just mash and French fries.
Sep 03, 2023 5:00amThere's something magical about potatoes. They can be baked in the oven with fresh herbs and olive oil; mashed into a creamy texture that's perfect for lamb shanks and beef cheeks; sliced and layered in a gratin; diced and mixed with mayonnaise and vinegar to make a creamy potato salad. Really, there are infinite ways to cook and devour potatoes - so it's really about picking the best potato recipe for the occasion.
Our collection of potato dishes goes beyond your classic mashed potatoes, baked potatoes, or roasted potatoes recipes. Turn your love for French fries into an obsession with our roasted vegetable poutine, or make our best homemade chips recipe, made with thinly sliced potatoes, at your next big gathering. There is also a lamb and duch*ess potato pie that will keep you nourished and warm even on chilly nights, while MoVida's famous chorizo bomba is a light side dish or starter that's perfect for dinner parties. Love sweet potatoes? Try a few dishes from our collection of sweet potato recipes, too.
These are our best potato recipes.
