Finger Food alternative
When we used to go on farmers markets we used these lovely little puffs for dipping. A lot of vegetarians asked us for them as they say its so hard to find good finger food for parties. This is the same potato recipe just rolled in some pre rolled puff pastry and bake at 200c for 25 minutes
