During lockdown, many people tried new recipes. A TikTok chef is causing a stir in the kitchen and on social media after demonstrating how to make an unconventional version of mashed potato. 


Instead of using whole potatoes, Elis Kitchen used multiple bags of Lay’s chips. 

If you want to try this odd recipe: 

1.    Combine some water, salt and white vinegar and let it boil.

2.    Add several bags of chips to the water until they are, uh, very soggy.

3.     Drain the chips in a colander and put the soggy chips back in the pan.

4.    Stir them until they have something of a mashed potato consistency and top them with cheese and smoked paprika.

Well, there’s only one way to find out… try it!
