Can anyone tell me a method for reheating or keeping warm, mashed potatoes?

Thank you

A few years ago I could only manage to eat soft food and tried lots of different frozen mash potato. Some were disgusting and craggy, but I’m pretty sure it was Tesco own brand which I found to be almost like home made!

Claggy not craggy! Oops!

I buy McCains chips in a silver packet. They are called Gourmet or something similar. Very expensive but almost as nice as the ones I make.

McCains are best for chips. We like the skin-on ones.

Just looked on Ocado website. Those are triple fried Gastro ones Kitty. Gotta try those!

Ooh, you can get them in a roast version. Goose fat.

I can't eat potato now. I use cauliflower mash on Shepherd's pie etc. Just cook cauliflower wer until really soft. Put in the food processor with butter and a bl of of cream. Whizz until smooth. Lovely

It's easy to make mash with a potato ricer. I bought one in Ikea and don't know how I managed without one.
