Ooh, if you want to make some mash, this is Pink-Winged's excellent and tasty potato farl recipe. It's foolproof! Plus the farls can be frozen and used from the freezer

I second and third that actually. Made fresh they are delicious with some sort of egg beans combo. :money:

I might have to make some now, I am due a batch

I made my first batch and and I had them with mushrooms and quite wet scrambled egg... They were heavenly! :A

Also I think extra thanks should go to zippychick as she very ably and simply told me how to do linky-links!

I just thought, you could grate carrot and then freeze it in a bag. I reckon that would come in pretty handy.

"Auntie Shiela's Soup"

saute a chopped onion and couple of cloves of garlic, add grated carrot, grated potato, red lentils, tin of chopped tomatoes and stock (I use Marigold veg boullion), couple of bay leaves (optional) - bring to boil and simmer for an hour or two. Delicious and like all good soups, tastes even better the next day!

Silly me! Pot bread = potato bread!:rotfl: Lazy today!:rotfl:

Can i also add roasted carrots are good. I made some with a little brown sugar and butter and roasted in the oven. To die for!:j

Try this vegetable pancake . Make it with just carrots and potatoes -works for all kinds of root veg;)

I think I use carrots in just about every meal I cook - if you grate them you can add them to rice while it's cooking, or add to spag bol, chilli, omlette etc. It gets another portion of veg onto everyone's plate without them noticing!
