Rumbledethumps (Scottish Mashed Potato and Veggie Casserole) image

England has Bubble and Squeak and in Scotland, the delicious fry-up of vegetables is called Rumbledethumps. This Rumbledethumps recipe is based on a classic recipe from Sue Lawrence, one of Scotland's most famous cooks. You can use leftover mashed potato if you have some, or cook from fresh. Plus, the beauty of the dish is that it can be made the day before and heated up then all it needs alongside is a hearty stew, or if you prefer eat it on its own, or even try it with a fried egg on top. Enjoy!

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my dish turned out really watery. I think I might have used too much milk.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my dish didn't turn out as good as I expected. I think I might have overcooked the vegetables.

This dish is a bit bland for my taste. I would add some more seasoning next time.
