Cost Breakdown

Critical Success Points

• • Do not over‑cook the potatoes in the first boil – they should be about three‑quarters done so they stay intact during frying
• • Blend the sauce and add it directly to the pan without straining – this keeps the texture rustic
• • Maintain medium heat when frying to achieve a golden crust without burning the butter

Safety Warnings

• • Hot oil and melted butter can cause burns – keep a lid nearby
• • Boiling water can splash – handle the pot with oven mitts
• • Allow the blended sauce to cool slightly before blending to avoid pressure build‑up in the blender
• • Use a sharp knife carefully when cutting potatoes
