Tips and Tricks

1. To cut the potatoes smoothly and do not go too far, use stoppers. For example, you can put a tuber in a spoon and only then cut it with a knife. For the same purpose, you will perfectly serve two wooden sticks, if you place the potatoes on the table between them.
2. In order for your potato accordion in the oven to be baked evenly, try to give it stability. To do this, you just need to cut off a small part from one side, and cut the fillings for the other.
3. Many mistresses make the mistake of filling this dish with too much salt and spices. Remember that some types of fillings, such as lard, give your future dinner a special taste and often do not require additions.
4. Do not be afraid to experiment. Prepare the "accordion" with different tastes and please your friends and relatives with new original dishes.
