Potatoes are a lean food by themselves. It’s the fat in which they are cooked that makes you fat. Forget what the doctors or the nutritionists say. They are always hunting for something, imagined mostly, to make your life miserable. You could survive on boiled potatoes and a glass of milk for an entire year without any real health issues. The nutrients
in potatoes are right under their jackets and if you peel those off before cooking them, you lose all the amazing minerals, fibre, Vitamin C and Vitamin B6. So, try cooking potatoes with their jackets whenever possible. Show respect and hold potatoes in high esteem as life without the ubiquitous potato is a life not worth living.
