There are several different ways of cooking scalloped potatoes.  One popular example is scalloped potatoes au gratin which cooks the sliced spuds with cheese.  The recipe on this page doesn't use cheese however, as the sausages contained in it make a deliciously substantial meal without the need for cheese as well.

This boiled kielbasa dinner recipe is a quick way to cook a nutritional and filling meal when you may have a busy schedule and don't want to have a microwaved meal.

Kielbasa is a type of Polish sausage which is also quite popular in the USA. You can either use home made kielbasa from our previous recipe, or shop-bought kielbasa if a store in your area sells it.

Potato peels are a very good source of vitamins and minerals, so don't throw those peels away.  Try this tasty and healthy potato peel soup with walnuts and croutons, using freshly cut potato peelings.

A healthy potato salad can be the basis of a deliciously healthy meal.  Here you'll find two delicious and easy recipes to make a couple of different but equally yummy potato salads. 

When making potato salad, red potatoes are the best choice of spuds to use, as they keep their shape better than other potatoes.

Firstly boil and cook your potatoes in water.  You'll need 3 potatoes for each of these recipes.

Yams are a great alternative to potatoes for making sweet potato pie, as yams are naturally sweeter.  This delicious recipe will show you how it's done.  Firstly thoroughly scrub off any dirt from 3 medium sized yams under a running tap.  Clean them really well - it's OK if you remove some of the skin in the process of scrubbing.

Stab your yams with a fork a few times to make them easy to cook, then slice them in half, leaving the skins on. Place your yam halves in a pot, cover them completely in water and boil for an hour to an hour and a half.
