We're passionate about potatoes
Whether they're roasted, sauteed, mashed, fried or boiled - potatoes have been a staple in British kitchens for centuries. We're celebrating both seasonality and versatility with a taste calendar full of delicious recipes to give you inspiration for creating your own potato dishes.
Poutine - oven chips, curds & gravy+
Poutine is a classic Canadian street food and here's our oven-based version. Traditionally made with cheese curds, which can be bought from specialist cheese shops or ordered online, it works just as well with creamy buffalo mozzarella. Topped with a rich gravy, it’s a deliciously gooey take on loaded fries.
Potato, pea and chickpea vegan samosas+
These vegan samosas are ideal finger food for a party snack, or as a side dish to go with a homemade curry. Baking them in the oven is a much healthier alternative to the fried ones you find in restaurants and take-aways. Once you’ve cracked the folding of the filo, you can experiment with different fillings.
