Help! I Need Easy Potato Recipes for My Kids

Question: “My children are 5 and 7 and they just love potatoes for dinner.

Editor: Pleasing kids without scratching our head and spending too much time cooking is not always easy. Maybe what you can do is to use classic cooking methods for potatoes but offer more “visual” variety: slices, cubes, latkes, patties and so on. You can also quickly carve nice shapes out of small potatoes. Steam cooking offers lot of possibilities for stuffing halved potatoes with many ingredients: ham, fresh cheese, butter, herbs…
