Potato dumplings. 1 cup cold mashed potatoes 1/2 cup all-purpose flour 1 egg salt and pepper (to taste)
DIRECTIONS:
In a bowl, mix all the ingredients; until it forms a stiff dough. Roll out dough on a floured board (as thick or as thin as you like). Cut into about 2-inch squares. They're that simple.
To cook these dumplings you have a couple of choices:
1: Drop them into boiling salted water. Cover and simmer for about 10 minutes. Drain and serve with your favorite sauce as a main course.
2: Drop them into boiling stew or soup (approximately 2 quarts of stew or soup). Cover and simmer for 10 minutes. These are a great added bonus to any soup.
Or add enough liquid to produce a loose mashed potato consistency.Drop spoonfuls into boiling salted water, soup, or stews.

Potato cakes. I made these a few weeks ago and they were yum! I'll google and see if I can find the link :-) or freeze it and keep for next time you are making a potato topped pie.
I've also made these with mashed up broccoli mixed in with the potato - my 2 year old loved them. Would be so yum with bacon and eggs for breakie or light dinner.

I make pinwheel savouries.A sheet of pastry rolled out, spread with chopped onion, bacon/ham, grated cheese, season well. Roll up like a jam roll, and slice thinly. Cook @ 200 for 10-15 mins til cooked.Always go down a treat if taken for a plate anywhere.

Mashed Potatoes My Favourite Cut up a small onion and dice finely. Place raw onions in spuds when mashing..
(a) Add half a pkt of maggi onion soup to the potatoes, mash as usual then add 1 tbsp of whole grain mustard and mix thru. (b) Try olive oil and crushed garlic through your mashed potato instead of butter and milk. (c) Grated tasty cheese and diced raw onion in mashed potatoes for tasty difference. Or use 2 spring onions. (d) Boil a good size piece of pumpkin with the potatoes.. Mash altogether for nice colour and different subtle flavour. (e) Boil some kumara with the potatoes.. Mash altogether for nice colour and different subtle flavour. (f) Add silver beet half way through to the potatoes as they cook. Then mash all together.. (g) Add cabbage half way through to the potatoes as they cook. Add black pepper and then mash all together... Ideal with corn beef and mustard sauce.. (h) Add 1/2 cup finely chopped parsley while mashing. (i) Add 2 tbsp of sundried tomatoes and 2 tbsp of chopped basil. (j) Add 2 rashers of chopped cooked bacon and a dash of tabasco sauce... (k) Add 1 ~ 2 tbsp each of Thai green curry paste and chopped parsley..
fisher's recommendations for variations on mashed potatoes...
...suitable for the pinwheels.

Depending on how much left over spuds you have, they make a really nice addition to toasted sandwiches.Simply spread a layer on one of the slices of bread before adding the rest of the fillings.
