yum! really enjoyed this over pesach... I made it in my betty crocker....
making this not for pesach, should I use flour? corn starch? how much should I use?
I think you should be able to use 1 cup of flour instead.
does this freeze well?
Yes!
@Imbabwa Every 1 potato is 1/4 cup of starch. Yes, they can be frozen
