I was surprised that no one posted this yet:

I went to the grocery after work: I got three types of potatoes …… but had frozen pizza for dnner

I boil mine for 5-10 minutes, drain, dump onto a cookie sheet, fork smash, top with melted butter and salt, and throw in the oven until the peaks are browned.

I do my mashed potatoes by popping them in the microwave on potato setting. After their baked, run them under child water to get the skins to separate and then mash. Let’s you get more butter and milk than if it’s boiled in water first.

Dice those, steam them for a bit until they’re soft (3 min in a microwave steamer) then pop them into a hot cast iron pan with a diced onion and some avacado oil, high heat. Stir occasionally until they start to brown (and the smallest pieces are a bit crispy).

You shouldn’t eat just potatoes for a meal, but its hard not to with those cooked like that.

I cut up potatoes into half, then half moon pieces, then into boiling water for 12 minutes, skins on, mash with salt, pepper, and butter, then some half and half. Done. That’s how I like my mashed potatoes.

U better not be mashing those with their skins on.
