Bee1 0 Posted April 9, 2010 Ok someone who owns a waffle maker please answer my question (something I was wondering about for a while): if you put mash potatoes in waffle maker - do you get potato waffles (not sure if that's only UK thing but you get them frozen from shops)?

Toulouse 0 Posted April 9, 2010 Dresden Dolls I heard of, but not very familiar with itHahaha, Frannie, I don't mean that in a bad way, Dire Straits are the best! That's the kind of music my parents like and I recently started appreciating them Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
inu-kijo 0 Posted April 9, 2010 hmmm bee..... you would have to make the potato batter mix... (its not JUST potatoes)But i don't see why you couldn't we make potato pancakes here... but i was sure that was a southern thing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Toulouse 0 Posted April 9, 2010 I actually haven't tried that one yet Bee, we just use it to make plain waffles Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Frannie 0 Posted April 9, 2010 excuse my language.. but CR*P like this makes me crazy:http://www.foxnews.com/us/2010/04/07/air-marshals-reportedly-stop-attempted-shoe-bomb-attack/DENVER -- An envoy from Qatar who authorities said grabbed a surreptitious smoke in a jetliner's bathroom and then joked about lighting his shoe on fire, sparking a bomb scare and the scrambling of military jets, has been released from custody.No explosives were found on the Washington-to-Denver flight.

Bee1 0 Posted April 9, 2010 thanks Kijo and BG I was always wondering about that. not sure what potato batter mix is but I guess I could try to google it. How do you make potato pancakes - that does sounds interesting. We have something similar called (well in english anyway) and it's kind of similar to potato rosti but bigger (even though I make mine small, almost bite size) - greated potatoes, few spoons of flour, bit of milk, salt, pepper, majoram, garlic, smoked sausage (e.g. frankfurters) or smoked bacon - optional. Mix it all up and spoon in hot frying pan and cook to light brown on both sides. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zoonie 0 Posted April 9, 2010 ^ Frannie demanded that the youngsters turned that wireless UP! Not sure which way you mean that story's carp Frannie?because of the response or because of the misdemeanour that set it off? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
inu-kijo 0 Posted April 9, 2010 Bee... like the potato mix.... instead of waffle mix... I would think its pretty close to the potato pancakes...we used to take leftover potatos, and mix it with a bit of flor and milk and what not, til it looked like pancake batter, then toss them on griddle just like a pancake..... makign me crave one of those terribly.....

Frannie 0 Posted April 9, 2010 i think both are wrong and inappropriate.. I understand the idea of diplomacy.. but why should this character have been released. We had to scramble fighter jets.. which I'm sure cost a pretty penny... and suppose the plane had been taken down based on his idiot response of "I'm lighting my shoe on fire".Oh I could go on and on, seeing as how I am flying tomorrow, but I take air security very seriously Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't have a waffle maker and I was considering of getting one but I wanted to know about potato waffles as I like them but the ones from shop have too many calories in it (all the extra oil/fat used) so I was thinking of making my own. Love sweet waffles too (very occasioanly) - with some fruit compot and whipped cream and chocolate sauce *drool* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zoonie 0 Posted April 9, 2010 OMG sorry Frannie, I totally agree with what you're saying - in this day and age, it's taken very seriously here, even what some numbskull thinks is a light hearted quip is an arrestable offence.All of this conversation of course, has been completely poleaxed by your new avatar, I laughed out so loud I frightened a sleepy Dennis Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bee1 0 Posted April 9, 2010 I have an Iphone not familiar with android phone but if it's similar to Iphone then there should be a way to add files to the phone - what is your exact make/model number? I could google it for you if you want Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
