54% of Kiwis eat potatoes four times a week, and potatoes have been given the Heart Foundation's tick of approval. Whether you buy a big bag or sack full and always keep it on hand, pick out enough potatoes for a couple of meals each time you visit the supermarket, or grow your own, you are sure to find that the potatoes you cook and serve to your family are well received!
Simon and Alison Holst are great potato enthusiasts. Alison's first potato book, now out of print, published more than 12 years ago, has been a best seller ever since, selling more than 100,000 copies. This new book, with many additions to the earlier book, is bigger, brighter and better!
