La Finesse Potato Drops Review & Serving Idea
We served the Aldi potato drops along side a nice steak (see background of photo) together with a nice fresh salad, portuguese papa seco rolls and sweet black grapes!
The potato drops crisped up nicely in the oven with 0 attention required which is always a win when you’re looking for a quick side dish.
They are soft and creamy inside, a bit like mashed potato wrapped in a crunchy blanket.
