These mashed potatoes are really a salad served at Royal Hotel in Monrovia, Liberia. While it looks like a ball of fried potato goodness, please note the bed of vegetables that resemble a salad but slightly cooked. This is truly a salad.
Inside the fried goodness, the fork meets potato, feta cheese, and mozzarella melted and sunk to the bottom of the ball. The cooked salad at the bottom has a great dressing and unusually pleasant taste and texture for being cooked. Cooking salad requires skill, how to keep it a salad and not turn into cooked vegetables.
Maybe the best part of the entire dish comes form the presentation. The sophisticated look of the fried goodness with the strips of decorative pure grease excuses the reality of the dish.
Order a potato salad and get a mass of yummy starch and cheese covered in fried wonder.
