====Best recipe review====

''I call these fritters''

5/5 

And they are great - especially with lots of chilli sauce.

===Serving suggestions===
''[[User:Robin]]'s serving suggestion'':

Serve with some mayonnaise, mixed with lots of very finely chopped onion and a good amount of [[wasabi-paste]]. (There isn't any [[onion]] in the [[wasabi mayonnaise]] in the photo, but trust me, it's nicer with it.)
===Chef's notes===
When you make [[Mash|mash]], make double or treble the amount and [[Freeze|freeze]] the remainder in single or double portion plastic bags. Great for recipes like this!
