So I haven't been cooking in a whiles, I'm still waiting to buy a freezer for my new flat, so it kinda makes everything difficult for me.
Making 3 things; mash, boiled n baked ham, & roasted beetroots.
Mash:
1kg regular potatoes + .75kg sweet potatoes, skin on and boiled well.
Sauteed 4 shallots + 4 cloves in a knob of butter and extra virgin olive oil in small pan.
Drained potatoes well, and added contents of small pan to the potatoes. Added plenty of pepper, milk (1/3 pint), and a nice sploosh of soy sauce for saltiness.
Mashed the shit out of all that tilll creamy.
