Potatoes: 65 delicious ways with the humble potato from fries to pies (Jenny Linford's Cookbooks)

Very nice book to own job

Was bought as a gift for a potato lover - she was over the moon with it

Bought this as a present for my mother in law and she really loves it

I love potatoes, but for some reason, I always end up cooking just a few standard recipes. Although potato-based dishes are to be found in pretty much every cookbook out there, one doesn't usually go through one's books after work in search of a quick spud-centric meal and, alas, it always boils (or roasts) down to the same usual suspects landing on the table.Fortunately, these blunt times are a thing of the past! Enter Jenny Linford's lifesaver book for the potato fan, written with deep knowledge of food and history. It makes it a total fun process to pick a quick or not so quick potato meal. The range is large. From simple chips, over Gado-Gado potato salad, to lovely soups, pies, croquettes and bakes, tasty standards, and some exotic ones ( try the Kimchi Potato Cakes!!), one is always on the safe side of things as long as there's a bag of potatoes around, together with some basic ingredients. ( the more ingredients the merrier, but even just oil or fat will do). The info around farming, history, and potato varieties is quite interesting too. I believe, this beautifully made book is basic kitchen gear.

'Potatoes' does that most wonderful thing, respecting the humble subject and showing it to the reader anew. I am always pleased when Jenny Linford adds another to her library of excellent recipe books. She presents wonderfully honed versions those recipes you expect and love in among thoughtful insight and history. And they work so well! But she goes beyond, adding recipes that you mightn't expect, with the broadest range of food cultures included and celebrated. This book is delicious on every page! And it is also a lovely object, Clare Winfield's photography the perfect accompaniment to the recipes. There is so much here I want to try! Bring on the spud.

We get potatoes every week in our veg box so they often start to collect up in our veggie basket. Not anymore!! These delicious recipes make potatoes the star ingredient. There are so many tasty recipes to choose from, from classics to more unusual dishes. Everything we have made so far has been delicious. Zahtar Potatoes are the favourite so far, but so many more delicious recipes to try. I can't wait to try the Potato-stuffed duck!

This is a great family cookbook using ingredients that are both readily available and inexpensive. There are recipes for side dishes and main meals and the potato chaat masala is alredy a family favourite. It,s also very good for family meat free recipes that are full of flavour. The book itself is lovely- well set out and with great styling and photography.
