I know it seems strange, but I always hated mashed potato until Lola made it without milk one night � it was really good!

I don't eat them much, I'll only have a small spoon full, cos mine is yum, but David, that sounds like prison food!

If you like it without milk, try frying it.
Throw a large glob into a hot pan with oil or butter and use a spatula to lift from the bottom then cop through. do that a few times and you have mash with crunchy bits.

Youngest made this tonight using a kg or more of "organic" beef brisket: (as the oldest was coming over before she jests off to London for her oxford gig this week)
Slow cooked beef brisket red wine braise in the enamel french oval creuset cookware. Used very good quality red wine (Mrs WPT was given a dozen from a hoarding clients parents)
Also had baked Jerusalem artichoke, baked kipfler spuds and mashed celeriac / parsnip mix.

Very nice Mrs Fawlty
My contribution was the idea as I saw it in the Age a coupla weeks ago

I don't mind artichokes, when they come in a jar. CBF going to all the hassle to pare the bastards back to cook them.
However, tonights dinner is a roast beef. topside roast, very little treatment, just cook it.
Served with some roast spuds and sweet potato, some steamed veges and i'm trying (see how they work out) a variation of a yorkshire pudding best described as an attempted herb muffin.

Was in Port Arlington at lunch time today so couldn't resist the worlds best potato cakes. Hubby went and got them, while I looked in windows, and he didn't tell me til I took the first bite. The shop has changed hands. Ugh. I've still got indigestion. Nooooooo. Tell me it's not so joe.

Jerusalem Artichokes:
We had these one's last week: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerusalem_artichoke
Used to grow them last year got about 15-20 kg's worth: I love 'em roasted but not too many of them. Can make some people fart

OK. Sunflower root, not an artichoke at all despite the name.
I'll stick with sweet potatoes unless I find them in the vege shop.
Tonight I'm doing Pizza. Up at 6:30am, 2.5 hours in the dentists chair from 8am, 1.75 bottles of red down the hatch to date, I'm planning an early one and a morning without an alarm going off.

Not an artichoke and the only connection with Jerusalem is that it's taste can divide people!!
