Spiritus-XKI Potato Potluck

Potato Potluck with Spiritus

Greetings all!

The XKI Cards Co-operative, together with the Foreign Affairs Department of 10000 Islands and Chief Executive of Spiritus, is proud to host the Spiritus-XKI Potato Potluck. It's been an exciting year for XKI-Spiritus connections after the joint WA Secretary-General election victory by 10000 Islands WA Delegate and WA Secretary-General Lenlyvit and Spiritus WA Delegate and WA Vice Secretary-General The Salaxalans. Subsequently both Lenlyvit and The Salaxalans were commended.

This event is a social mixer with residents of Spiritus. Any citizen of 10000 Islands or Spiritus is welcome to post in this thread to celebrate our accomplishments together over the past several months. Please bring potato dishes, in honor of Kuriko-Salaxalans' two potatoes for all campaign promise, and share your recipes in this thread! Everyone who shares a potato recipe will be entered into a raffle to win one of two copies of Season 2 Epic Kuriko and two copies of Season 2 Epic The Salaxalans courtesy of the XKI Cards Co-op. The event will end after July 17.

Thank you to everyone for coming and remember: two potatoes for all!

Potatoes are so versatile and can be made into amazing sides for steak dishes

One of the easiest (still quite delicious) way to serve potato, baked potato!

If you need a way to get rid of the leftover mashed potatoes or have some raw potatoes that wont make another of these recipes, here is an old recipe to make potato candy

You can't go wrong with thick steak fries, seasoned with sea salt or maybe a dash of cajun seasoning, and served with hot sauce or ketchup!

[HumanSanity]

I've been working on the ultimate home fries lately, I have a few key steps:

- start by cutting up the potatos into 1 inch cubes and parboil them for 3 minutes
- put olive oil and butter in a pan. Fry potatoes for 5 minutes on each side, 4 times for 20 minutes total. Each time you flip the potatos add a pat of butter to the pan to keep it well oiled.
- Season as desired. I use cayenne, fresh garlic, garlic powder, lemon pepper, salt, pepper. I also like to add lime juice
- I add parmesean cheese at the last 90 seconds the potatos are in the pan
- I like to serve with a fried egg on top

[Adrinian]

Can never go wrong with poutine, tater tots or fries. The best I ever had was on the coast of Maine.

Ham and scalloped potatoes (I don't really measure so these are guesses, adjust as needed!)

--Take 4-5 potatoes, peel, slice, then parboil
--While potatoes are cooking, make a cheddar sauce [about a cup...ish? of white sauce (flour, butter, milk) with a half cup of cheddar cheese melted in]
--Cut 1/2 cup to 1 cup of ham, or more if you really like ham I guess (either cubed ham steak or pieces of a baked ham, etc)
--Let potato slices cool a bit
--Spread a light layer of sauce on the bottom of a casserole dish
--Add a layer of potato slices
--Sprinkle on some ham
--Add another light layer of sauce
--Continue with the layers until everything is used, top layer should be sauce
--Top with some shredded cheese and crispy fried onions
--Baked at 350F for about 30-45 minutes, or at least just until the potatoes are fully tender

Sorry for the delay in closing up the event!

I count 12 entries where people submitted recipes, plus Salax who didn't submit a recipe so much as a structure. I assigned everyone a number 1-13 for the purpose of the drawing.

I wanted a list of 4 random numbers. The first two will receive Lenlyvit cards. The third and fourth will receive Salaxalans cards. The numbers generated by Random.org were:

7
8
4
11

Congratulations to Eastern New England and Thedairos for randomly being awarded a Kuriko card!

Congratulations to @yuwa and Adrinian for randomly being awarded a The Salaxalans card!

Gifts will be sent in a moment. Thanks to everyone who showed up! It was mighty tasty
