Related to Potato
Sweet Potato
Sweet potato is denser (139 g/cup vs 156 g/cup), sweeter, and softer when cooked. Works in roasts, mashes, and fries; expect more colour and less starchy bite. See our Sweet Potato converter.
Cauliflower
Low-carb swap for mash and gratin. Cauliflower (111 g/cup) carries much less starch, so the mash turns out lighter and looser. Drain well after boiling or the result waterlogs. See our Cauliflower converter.
Beetroot
Adding beetroot to the tray? The beetroot converter works out whole-item counts and chopped cups across small, medium, and large sizes. See our Beetroot converter.
