Creamy mash is the perfect year-round comfort food. Its versatility means it can accompany most savory dishes or serve as a delicious topping for meat, vegetable, or fish pies. The AGA simmering oven offers an excellent way to cook potatoes. Alternatively, you can continue simmering them on the hotplate or induction for 15-20 minutes until soft.
