This dish was a little too greasy for my taste. I think I'll try baking the potato cakes next time instead of frying them.

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

This dish was a little bland for my taste. I think it could have used more seasoning.

This dish was a little too spicy for my taste, but I think that's because I used a little too much taco seasoning. Next time I'll use less.

I'm not a huge fan of potatoes, but this dish changed my mind. The potatoes were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, and the taco seasoning gave them a delicious flavor.
