Essential information
How to reheat Mashed Potatoes with Peas
Always serve Mashed Potatoes and Peas warm. The easiest way to reheat them is to pour water into a pot and bring it to a boil. Add the mesh to a (glass) bowl and place it over the pot of boiling water. Make sure the bowl doesn't touch the water. While stirring regularly with a spatula, heat the mash, then serve.
What else can I add to my mash?
Mint and peas are best friends, so we recommend adding a teaspoon of chopped mint. Always use fresh mint.
Storing and freezing
Mashed Potatoes and Peas are always best prepared fresh. We can't freeze them, but we can store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge.
Add any leftover Mashed Potatoes and Peas in an airtight container, seal, and place in the fridge for up to 3 days. Before serving, reheat (as written above).
