What is your favorite way to prepare potatoes? Mine are Potato Pancakes. How about you?

43. My favorite thing involving potatoes.

It's a pie. First, buy a Pillsbury pie crust from the refrigerated section of your local supermarket.

Take the pie crust out of the fridge and toss it onto the counter.
Saute some onions until soft. No need to caramelize, just cooked all the way.
Brown and crumble a chub of sage pork sausage. Mix with the cooked onions.
Boil and mash about 2.5 lb of peeled red potatoes. Go easy on the salt when boiling them, and use a bit less milk than normal.
Preheat over to 400 degrees.
Mix the sausage and onions into the mashed potatoes.
Put one pie crust into a glass pie pan; apply egg wash to interior. Load all that sausage & potatoes & onions into the pie. It's going to look way over full. Don't worry about it.
Top with the other pie crust; crimp edges. Cut half a dozen slits into pie.
Egg wash top of pie.
Bake for 30 minutes with crust protector in place; remove crust protector and bake an additional 10 minutes.
Allow to cool for at least an hour, preferably an hour and twenty minutes.

My mother used to make this; she called it "French Pork Pie". It's a variation of Tourtiere, a French-Canadian thing. She made her own pie crust; I am not that sophisticated and the Pillsbury crust is quite good anyway. Normally, I would make this tomorrow, as tomorrow is Pi day (3.14), but it's a Friday in Lent. I already know I'm going to hell but there's hope for my wife, so tomato soup and grilled cheese sandwiches it shall be.

There are, of course, lots of other ways I like potatoes. I am surprised no one has yet mentioned potato salad!
