Have you tried good old potato cakes. I make them in the oven to take out some of the fat but traditionally they are made by being friend. They are very easy. Grate about a pound of potatoes and let them sit in a colander salted for about an hour to drain, ( I have done this in the morning and let sit all day for convenience but they do turn a little brown from oxidation that long they are OK just dark) once drained I add two beaten eggs, 4 tablespoons of flour, about 1/4 cup chopped green onion ( or grated onion) and about a 1/2 tsp each of black pepper, paprika, and 1/4 tsp. powdered garlic. Mix well and fry in hot oil or bake at 425 for about 45 minutes or until crispy brown. So good with pork and kraut or ham. We do a lot of potatoes I am the stereotype Irish American that way! Another favorite is to microwave the small potatoes until very soft the squish them down with the back of a big spoon until flat but not falling apart. Then I give them a quick fry in butter until just brown and crunchy and sprinkle with a seasoned salt, or a spice mixture like montreal steak or my favorite Italian herbs and a little parmesan cheese! I have used this site a few times to find good recipes: http://www.best-potato-recipes.com/

Potato is a standard vegetable. So many types of foods can be made with potatoes. Have a nice day.

Why not try to make chicken and potato salad. All you need is mustard, mayonaise chicken and potato of course. You may search the net for many recipes on this meal.
