Hi food friends,
With the current situation, I'm looking at other methods of cooking the humble potato, be home grown or bought.
I no longer have a deep fat firer but would like to know if its possible to do small batches eg cooking then freezing or pan frying.

Potato croquettes? I made some the other day and froze them very successfully. I use a variation on a theme of this recipe:- https://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/potato_croquettes_11402

You can also do chips. I make the chips, par boil, then freeze. You can then fry in oil (I know you dont have a DFF but you can use oil in a wok with a thermometer) until fully cooked and eat or just until a crust forms and freeze again.

I always open freeze on a tray until hard and then put into a bag. That way you can take out as many as you need.

There's very little you can't do with the mighty potato.

Make your own oven chips! Peel and cut spuds as if doing "real" chips. Pre-heat oven to 200C, heat oven tray with oil in till sizzling. Chuck in potatoes and toss. After about 10 minutes, toss and turn them again, put back in oven until they look like chips. Simple.
Potatoes Dauphinoise are fantastic, absolutely delicious, and cooked in the oven as well. Certainly worth making.
I agree, love those or Boulangère potatoes if you don't fancy something creamy.
And You can include potato in any home made soup.
Put broken up boiled ones in a corned beef hash- either a wet one or fried one
You could make some home fried crisps, just a bit thicker than shop bought ones.
Peel or just wash your spuds. Slice them at an angle so that the thickness varies from half inch to wafer-thin. Put in pan with water and bring to boil. Turn off heat and leave for a minute or so. Hold the pan lid over the pan and strain the spuds. Pour some oil over the spuds and leave them till you want to cook them. When needed, heat a frying pan with a bit of oil (not much, as you've already oiled the spuds). Sautee (i.e. fry) gently while your other stuff is cooking.Stir from time to time to get them brown all over.
