Potato Feast

A great idea from Ellen in Stirling City:
Have a Potato Feast and invite friends to eat and drink and make a contribution to Freegle. So why potatoes you ask? Well it is a relatively cheap staple that can be turned into so many dishes. The kids who come can do potato printing, and generally everyone can have a good time. It may not bring in lots of dosh (although it may) but it will spread the word about Freegle. Also have a quiz which guests pay to complete (the idea is to offer many ways to make money!). If you are feeling really inspired you could compile a recipe book and sell that too.

Some dishes you could serve:

Bombay Potatoes
Chilli Con Carne
Curried Roast Potatoes
Devilled New Potatoes
Four Cheese and Potato Layer Bake
Fruity Potato Cake
Mexican Salad
Picnic Omelette Squares
Potato Apple Cake
Potato Curry
Potato, Onion and Tomato Bake
Potato, Sausage and Onion Pie
Prawn and Potato Pathia
Rosti Potato Cake with Courgettes and Carrots
Vegetable and Cashew Nut Biryani
