I'm not sure what went wrong, but my potatoes turned out really gluey. I think I might have overcooked them.

This recipe is a great starting point, but I think it could be improved with some additional spices. I'll definitely be experimenting with different variations.

The potatoes were a little too runny for my liking. I think I'll try using less milk next time.

A bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more salt and pepper next time.
