Mmm, potatoes.

Get to the market and buy a couple of kilos of Swiss Bintje.

Dice - without peeling - into small pieces
Season with salt, pepper and a large handful of ground coriander seeds
Drizzle with olive oil or better still chili oil
Leave to roast for 25 minutes

Serve with a plump Bird and steamed leek.

Wooo I'm hungry...

Hop you're not being a tad "fattist" there Uncle?

No! Who, me???

Actually that line is in the wrong Thread. It should be under Haiku of the day:

To enjoy taters
Add coriander, chili
Serve with a plump Bird

beautiful!
you even have a bit of a seasonal theme going there (birds tend to be not quite as plumb in Spring, now do they?)

To eat potatoes
Cut out eyes and chuck green bits
Doubts? Ask Nick and Jack

Mash mash, quite a bit.
Stir in a spoon of butter
Ensure it's really thick



cheers,
(Mr) - No good at haiku - Wibble

rösti I prefer,
crispy on the outside, with
melted cheese on top


Cheers,
Tim

Thought I would give this post a bit of a bump... We've also included more information about potatoes in Switzerland in our blog if you are interested in finding out more about all of the varieties available here... Hope it's useful...

Potato leek soup
Dice potatoes, leeks and onion. Crush garlic. Saute all in Butter. Season with salt and pepper. Add chicken stock. Cook in low heat for 30 minutes. Once cooked, mash with hand blender. Serve piping hot.
