Roasting tinned potatoes

[albaqwerty]

Can you or just better to heat up on the hob?

Thank you x

They usually don't have skins if they are tinned - better just heat up.

Are you serious, Alba? Tinned potatoes?

[beejay1124]

tinned potatoes???????????????????--so youre the person that actually buys them alba(x)

[boxtops]

We often have a tin in, good for emergencies (or salads)

Thanks Boxy, I wasn't too keen on the idea just fancied a different take on spuds with the roast chicken
(skint until Tuesday!)

I have used tinned potatoes, they are not too bad.

3 meals bought yesterday, for the 4 of us for a tenner :-)

quarter cut, sprinkle with salt & grill with little oil, for crunch.

[Tilly2]

I'm sorry, alba. That was thoughtless of me.
You could try sprinkling with oil and putting in a small roasting dish in a very hot oven. The won't take long, as they're already cooked.

Well done Alba

[tonyav]

What's the problem with them. although I have to admit that I know nothing about cooking.

You can buy ready made mashed potato too - Aunt Bessie's are lovely.

Not at all Tilly xxx :-)

Well, I say 'food' in the loosest sense :-)

[mallyh]

deep fry them

[humbersloop]

no shame albs, I always keep a couple of tins in handy.

I've never tried to roast them, but they fry up well seasoned with salt, pepper and oregano, which might be an alternative.

[albaqwerty]

oh Wolf, the first time I saw that was shortly after I'd noticed packets of grated cheese!!

[albaqwerty]

aha sloopy, that's an idea, and a darned good one too, thank you x

Deep fried they come out like roasted spuds.
