The two best things, combined into one!

I just love potatoes! Mashed, roasted, fried...literally heaven for me. This recipe serves as a great side idea instead of your usual fries or roasted potatoes. You can also add pretty much anything you'd like inside. Bacon and cheese would definitely be a dreamy combo!

  Unfortunately the waffle iron was a epic fail. In part due to the waffle iron but mostly mine. It was really fun trying though

recipe calls for cornstarch/corn flour, not sure if you use cornstarch or cornflour. Please confirm

  Corn starch and corn flour are the same thing, just depends on where you live in the world :)

  either one, if you can get corn flour use i, but if you can't find it cornstarch is an alternative.
