Hey everyone! I’m a university student on a tight budget and ended up with a bunch of small Lidl golden baby potatoes. I’m looking for some delicious recipes that use potatoes. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
Hey! There are so many delicious and budget-friendly recipes you can make with Lidl golden baby potatoes! Here are a few ideas:
Roasted Baby Potatoes: Toss the potatoes with olive oil, salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs (like rosemary or thyme). Spread them out on a baking sheet and roast at 400°F (200°C) for about 25-30 minutes until crispy and golden.
Smashed Potatoes: Boil the potatoes until fork-tender, then drain. Gently smash each potato with a fork or your palm, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt, pepper, and any other seasonings you like. Bake them at 425°F (220°C) for about 20 minutes until crispy.
Potato Salad: Boil the baby potatoes until tender, then let them cool. Cut them in half and mix with mayo, mustard, chopped onions, celery, and herbs. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Skillet Potatoes: Dice the baby potatoes and sauté them in a pan with a bit of butter or oil, garlic, and onion until they’re golden and tender. You can add veggies like bell peppers or spinach for extra nutrition.
Potato Soup: Dice the potatoes and simmer them with vegetable broth, leeks or onions, and any other veggies you have on hand until everything is tender. Blend it for a creamy soup or leave it chunky.
Mashed Potatoes: Boil the potatoes, then mash them with butter, milk (or cream), salt, and pepper. You can also add garlic or cheese for extra flavor.
