How many ways do you cook potatoes?

[Bretrick]

I enjoy mashed, with plenty of real butter
Stuffed potatoes are a substantial meal, my favourite being Bacon and egg. Hard boiled egg, chopped, cooked bacon, spring onions, sour cream, swiss cheese
Baked, with baked parsnip and pumpkin
Potato cakes - Rosti style
Potato and Leek soup
Potato and egg salad

I can't live without my potatoes! Must have them, just like I must have water...

Back to bed now...

The stuffed potatoes sound delicious! As, of course, do the mashed potatoes.

Geez, I'm going to be a contrarian again. I was raised on mashed potatoes and gravy (along with other things). Ugh. When I left home, I said I'd never eat mp&g again. And I don't think I ever did.

(When I was a cook, there was no way I was going to peel and mash potatoes either. I used a product called Potato Pearls. These were instant mashed potatoes, but close enough to the real thing.)

However, french fries, home fries, baked potatoes, scalloped potatoes ... those are all good!

I don't eat potatoes any more though.

 

[Devi]

Mmmm. French fries!

 

[RadishRose]

All known ways I think.

I learned a tip from the famous French Chef Jacques Pepin:
Easy way to thicken a soup that is too thin, use instant mashed potatoes.

I 'love' most all ways of cooking potatoes.

During the winter, I have a medium seasoned roasted as an appetizer, most evenings...having just buying 10#

The large Russet..will be....w/sour-cream&chive

I love the "waxy" new ones too. But yes, Russets are best for baking and for mashed.

When I was little, my nickname was "potato" because I loved eating potatoes. Now I eat none because of my low carb diet.

You forgot to mention scalloped potatoes and ham! I enjoy slices of onions in mine, too. Yum!

My favorite taters are Yukon Gold and Russet.

Not many, haven't cooked a potatoes in years. Eat a few now and then, not my cooking though.

I prefer rice, being from a Louisiana rice farming family its what I grew up with. Rice and gravy is great.

My mom never made mashed potatoes because she did not like peeling them so I grew up wanting mashed potatoes. I still love them mashed, but also baked, scalloped, au gratin and fried with onions.

 

[dobielvr]

I like Hash browns too. But, most times they don't cook them enough at the restaurants.
I like them crispy.

@dobielvr, I like them crispy, too. That's why, when ordering them in a restaurant, I always ask for them "well-done."

There's a certain way to make mashed potatoes that is a little different. Add garlic, olive oil, and vinegar to it (instead of milk and butter). It gives it a whole different flavor.

 

[Happy Heart]

Salt baked russet potatoes and I also make masala potatoes, but nothing beats Grandma's potato and onion pierogi.
