She should shut her stupid mouth
Parboil them first.
Can’t judge roasties without eating them, the ideal roastie is fluffy inside but crispy outside.
They look a bit too smooth, but I’m sure they’re delicious
I’d tell her if she aint happy then she can make her own roast tatties next time.

Don’t give her any
To be fair, they look rock solid… and not in a crispy, crunchy way.
what’s the nature of the complaint?
Time for boarding school.
Tell her to cook them herself then.
Adoption sounds appropriate.

They definitely need fluffing up after parboiling.
Have they been seasoned?
Get a DNA test and throw her out
You need to fluff them a bit after they’ve parboiled.
I’d have them over the crap my dad makes lol

Goose fat, beef dripping, they look hard on the inside.
