En savoir plus sur le livre

Better known as spuds, praties or Murphys, the potato has been associated for so long with Ireland that it's easy to take it for granted. But boiled or mashed aren't the only ways of serving this always-in-season vegetable. Combining the traditional and innovative, Nell Donnelly exploits the amazing capacity of the potato to fill an incredible range of soups, stews, chowders, salads, including oven-baked and easy Potato and Cheese Pie and the tantalizing taste of Frosted Lamb Loaf. From side dishes to main courses, you'll find an imaginative yet simple recipe for any occasion. In the introduction, the author delves into the mysterious history of the potato, recounts old-fashioned remedies associated with the potato, and shows how, far from being fattening, the potato is packed with vitamins and minerals essential to good health.
