Big sack of potatoes

If stored right they will last for week but you could do loads of things to part prep meals . mash does freeze as do duchesse potatoes or potato nests http://www.lovepotatoes.co.uk/ might have some ideas not really had a peruse myself but came across it a while back when seraching for something

If stored right they will last several months; although I would recommend checking over for sprouts after a month.

A lot depends on the variety and how cool you can keep them. Also the basic of keeping them out of the light.

Steam them, then mash or slice or chip for the freezer.
Otherwise they will keep for months but as RAS post, watch out for sprouting at this time of year.
Bargain at £2 per 12.5kg., cheaper than growing them.

If you're planning on freezing mash (an excellent idea), stir through some powdered milk, a tablespoon or more for a serving for two, before you freeze it. If you skip that step when you defrost the mash it can sometimes be a bit watery.

Like the O.P I too bought a bag of these spuds, £2 wow. So for tonight we're having Rosti done in the waffle maker and I'll look at the other ideas suggested here, thank you.

I buy a sack from Morrisons every two weeks and they keep really well, but we are a household of five adults.

We have them:
Roasted
Potato scones......these freeze well and are lovely with a drippy egg, bacon and beans, or with jam
Baked in their jackets
As gnocchi
Rosti ....they freeze well
On top of cottage pie.....make and freeze
Wedges or chips
Sliced and layered in a dish with bacon, mushrooms and cheese sauce.
Sausage and mash always goes down well
Bean and sausage bake put cooked sliced sausages in a dish with a tin of baked beans and a tin of tomatoes top with mash and sprinkle with some grated cheese and sliced onion put in the oven 180c until golden

if you struggle with wedges or big chips, cut into 1cm cubes. coat in a little oil, and whack in the oven for 10-15 mins til golden. perfect, quick and so easy!

I wish I could thank you for this post twice, roobs! :A

Looks amazing and I can also finally now bake for my new love interest (wheat-free)

Take a look at this recipe for crisps. OP, if you crack the storage then this is so easy and a great standby snack with a seasoning of your choice.
