[] We were having dinner at a friends house during the holidays, and my friend served 'Irish Potatoes' (I think they're dubbed as Irish because they come out looking a little green from all the spices) with her holiday turkey and ham. I had never heard of these before and they were quite YUMMY. She was able to come up with the following recipe for me. Its another one of those recipes put together by someone who doesn't cook with a measuring cup, so I daresay these measurements are approximate. Irish Potatoes 8 med potatoes quartered, boiled and drained. 1/2 cup finely chopped celery 1/2 cup finely chopped onion 1/2 stick butter 1/2 cup sour cream 1 tablespoon sugar 1 1/2 teaspoon thyme 3/4 teaspoon basil salt and pepper to taste mash above together, place in a casserole and bake @ 350 for 1 hour. -- -Christie Earl {...sun!ios ...hplabs|fortune!oliveb}!tymix!earl 186,000 miles per second.
