Being a fussy eater as a child, my parents found it difficult for me and my siblings to eat vegetables so by giving us "special golden potatoes" we were more than happy to eat it without ever knowing just what made it so special.
This recipe is a take between mashed potato and potato salad. Experience with my own family shows you can't go wrong with potatoes served as a side, young or old no one complains. This recipe adds a wow factor to the presentation and looks appetising as a centrepiece. I would describe this as a 'potato salad dressed up. These are fantastic with any meat or fish meal, with bbq or to take on a picnic. When taking on a picnic I usually pack all the components separately and put them together there.
Keen to give your mashed potatoes a little update? Add an egg yolk to make them extra rich and fluffy, then serve with a sprinkling of cheese and spring onion.
