[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Speaking of not wasting food... here is a new recipe, I came up with yesterday...

I was making a recipe yesterday that called for boiled, peeled, riced potato.  In a hurry, I washed the potatoes, sliced it in 1 inch thick rounds, dunked it in water in a pyrex dish and microwaved it for 13 minutes.  I fished out the boiled rounds of potato in a sieve spoon and it was too hot to try and peel off the skin. I was in too much of a hurry to wait, so I just used my hand ricer, putting the potatoes in  and ricing it, and then using a spoon to scoop out all the skin and potato that was left in the ricer.  After I finished making whatever I was making...I eyed the big messy pile of boiled potato peels and mushed up potato sticking to it...and did not throw it in my compost bin.

Here is what I made instead . Finely minced a few cloves of garlic and 1/4 of an onion, sauteed it with some butter, threw in the whole pile of the potato peels and smushed up bits of boiled potatoes...added a generous 2 tsp of paprika and some salt.  Mix well and spread the entire mixture evenly on the pan and let it brown some.  It was heavenly.

Next time, I may add some bacon and pan-fried green peas. [/quote]

That sounds delicious![/quote]

It was. This one is a keeper for me. The slight bitterness of the potatoes reminded me of cheesy potato skins during happy hour of my single days. And there was enough potato stuck to the skin to make it feel substantial and not just peels.  It was a taste explosion. [/quote]
