Depends on the spuds. Jerseys - boiled, King Edwards - baked or mashed, Maris Piper - roasted, Charlotte - cold in salads. Don't really like chips.
 
Aligot is a dish traditionally made in the south of Auvergne (Aveyron, Cantal and Lozère) region of France made of melted Tomme cheese blended into mashed potatoes, often with some garlic. Other cheeses - usually not fully ripe - can be substituted for Tomme cheese. The dish is ready when it develops a smooth, elastic texture.

This dish was originally made from bread by monks who prepared it for the pilgrims on the way to Santiago de Compostela, but potatoes were substituted after their introduction to France, because they allowed a more desirable consistency.

:cool:
 
I'm another who would do different things to different potatoes.

I had some very nice Ayrshire Epicures (June earlies) today. Obviously they were boiled and left at that. Only a philistine would mash those.
 
Sauteed is probably number one for me.
A well done mash is a joy though.

Hard to beat roast potatoes on a Sunday though, especially when served with beef and gravy :)
 
Forgot baked potatoes...

A well done baked potato is a meal in itself so might be made of win here?
 
Baked, followed by roast ( though only good roast ) ...quite into potato salad at the mo and gratin is always a winner, can take or leave chips
 
Should be multi-choice. Couldn't possibly choose between mash, chips, roasties, them dolphinoise ones or loads of others. Basically if they've had loads of fat sloshed in there I would eat them out of a tramp's arsehole with a spoon and never get my fill.
 
them dolphinoise

:D

Mashed into a big fuck off bolus with corned beef, cheese and beans then deep fried council estate style :cool:
 
Another vote for dauphinoise.

Lots of garlic and cream. And possibly some cheese, too, if it still feels too healthy.
