These potatoes are a great way to use up leftover potatoes. I always have a few extra potatoes after I make mashed potatoes, and this is a great way to use them up.

These potatoes were a bit too minty for my taste. I think I would have preferred less mint and more garlic.

I was looking for a new way to cook potatoes, and this recipe caught my eye. I'm so glad I tried it! The potatoes were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. The mint and garlic added a great flavor.
