Best potatoes I've ever had. I used about 2 parts potato to 1 part chou and they were amazing. My husband sends his thanks as well.

Wow, they just melted in my mouth. The whole family loved them. I didn't have any panko so I made them without and they were really wonderful. Thank-you so much for the recipe.
