Made for Aussie/NZ Recipe Swap #29. This is a super easy and very tasty recipe. Great for lunches and for cocktail party fare. The only change I made was to add some salt and white pepper. I think I would definitely add some salt to the milk when cooking the potato next time - just my preference. Thanks for a keeper, Mandy.
