Do you think at the point to refrigerate for 20 minutes that I can actually freeze them and take them out one by one and use them as necessary?
Yes, definitely!
Wondering… Is it possible I could make these with russet or yukon gold potatoes instead of sweet ?
This recipe does sound amazing and I can’t wait to try it!
eh would have gotten 5 stars, but jews are bad
These were great! I made these today. They came out great!
We all liked it better with ketchup (and sliced pickles) rather than with garlic aioli.
Yum. Now I have to go buy some kidney beans.! Thanks for the feedback.
