Yo can get frozen mashed potato here and it's surprisingly good with a little bit of butter, cream, and pepper added.

I boil potatoes, mash them up with a gently caress tonne of butter, salt, pepper and sometimes a lil bit of garlic powder or chives. But mainly it's just potato, butter and seasoning.

Gonna make bangers and mash tonight I think. Do a pan gravy from the sausages to go with it.

I've always said there are two types of people in the world, potato people, and rice people. Both cheap starchy carbs that can power a civilization.

I'm a taters guy. Rice loving sucks most of the time, but taters, man they're so good

Rice is amazing. Every time I see someone cook rice in just water it blows my mind. Season that poo poo. Rice with salt, maybe a bit of butter, cooked well, god it's just tasty by itself. Unseasoned rice is the same as unseasoned potato.

Using broth instead of water as the cooking liquid is a pro move

this is basically mediterranean style which is fine sometimes but nothing beats just steaming or boiling with some water and a splash of oil

Rice is so good, I use chicken stock in the water to give it more flavor.

You can do this with potatoes too.

People get mad when you try and get fancy with their Thanksgiving staples. Make green bean casserole from fresh green beans and scratch cream of mushroom?
