If you are looking for KFC potatoes , these are not it...sorry to say. My 11 yo loves KFC, and I have tried different variations to replicate KFC. I have to agree with LawyerMom. Needed to add extra milk to get these from being stiff and clumped. Only difference is the copious amount of margerine & butter. I think potatoes may have tasted better with these 2 ingredients added after the formation of the potatoes and not boiled in the water. On continues the KFC potato search!

Consistency and texture was a lot like KFC's, though I had to add a lot of extra milk. However, I think the flavor fell short. I loved how easy the recipe was, but I don't think I'll be making it again.
