A lot of the veg are roasted, put them in a baking tray, brush with olive oil, season, and pop in a hot oven till tender....mmmmmmmmm

No boiling involved?

Hi there...

I don't boil my veg before roasting. Just drizzle with olive oil, plenty of garlic and a high heat in the oven for about an hour. This gives it time to carmelise.....mmmmmm fantastic.

hi all
is it me or do the mashed potatoes in turkey taste horrible, have yet to have nice mash anywhere in turkey, that goes for jacket pots aswell, i think its the potatoes themselves maybe its the variety

I think some of the places serve up instant mash.

Well, I think it might be something to do with the fact that it's only us that do that to spuds. I work in a pub and all the foreign cooks have to be told how to do do mashed/baked spuds the way we like them. It's the same with "scrambled" eggs. It doesn't make them bad chefs. It just means that we treat food in a different way to other people. Why do you think the "frogs" call us "Ros beefs"? It might be us and not the chefs.

I had the nicest mash I have ever tasted in Captain Bullshits.
We had it with liver & onions but there were also chips on the plate. I would have preferred all mash cos it was so good!
