I always watch funeral potato recipe videos just to see if anybody seasons them.. I don't understand why people don't season them, I use kosher salt, coarse ground black pepper, fresh garlic with caramelized onion, basil and oregano.. it's fantastic, also I do like to use paprika but it turns the whole dish pink 😂
We've eaten these for many years in our family. However we called them Presbyterian Potatoes because we would make them for church pot-lucks. At any rate, always a favorite.
These are an Irish tradition for St Paddy's Day and to take to grieving families...hence Funeral Potatoes. They are well-documented in Ireland in the 1800s. And the diced potatoes are far better than shredded. Well done. I find it important to shred block cheese vs using the pre-shredded cheese due to the anti-clumping treatment on those. Plus, they are usually not even real cheese these days.
Beautiful thing about Funeral Potatoes is it's adaptable to "make it your own". For example, I may add some cubed ham or bacon crumbles. Or change the cheese- Gouda works well to for example. Or top with French's fried onions ..
sooo update on the funeral potatoes. OH MY GOODNESS. they were the biggest hit. WOW. thank you thank you thank you. I am subscribed to your channel and I am cookin with Keri. Thank you again dear. be blessed...
We call them Party Potatoes. I substitute cream of celery sometimes. I use Simply Potatoes and top with crushed potato chips! My daughter uses birth shredded cheese and cubed cheese. We call hers Cheesy Cheesy Party Potatoes!
Party potatoes sounds way more fun! 🎉 What are simply potatoes? Potato chips would be awesome! I bet with that much cheesy goodness, they are very cheesy!
totally making this tomorrow. Thank you soooo much Keri for sharing your amazing recipe. Yours looks sooo much better than all the others ones that I have been looking at. Even my grandmothers recipe was dry. Yours has way more moisture in the mix. All the ones that I have tried are soooo pasty and dry. Even Grandma's.. shhh don't say anything.. LOL.. Thank you Keri..
The funeral potatoes were a big hit at our Christmas party Friday night. There were 10 people at the party and the funeral potatoes got completely finished off and there was nothing left! I used panko bread crumbs on top instead of crushed cornflakes. Dang! And I was looking forward to some leftovers! 😉
Wowza! That looks really tasty. I would eat those even if I wasn't at a funeral. I can see all kinds of options/possibilities. But I definitely gotta watch them carbs😱.
I would love it if you made a video on how to make mashed potatoes. I am 50 and have NEVER been able to make mashed potatoes. They are either lumpy or gluey.
The recipe calls for 1/2 cup melted butter, did you cut and melt 1/2 cup or at the end you say while poring it in you are saying 1/3 cup.could you tell me which it is, I like to try these Sunday. I thought 1/2 cup sounded like a lot, but like to make sure. TIA from Minnesota
Very good video. But, try to remember the lines by not reading a teleprompter. Be more relaxed as far as you posture. You come off as Ai, or robotic. You will go far. Again, good recipe, you are attractive, you know what you want people to make.
I have made these and I didn’t have any cornflakes, but I did have Doritos and I’m not even disappointed about the choice I made with that
🤣 Made me laugh, how you phrased that! "Not even disappointed." Nope. Not even one bit! Lol. I bet it was really tasty!!

Those spices would make it delicious! Thanks for sharing ❤️

Those are all delicious additions to funeral potatoes! ❤️
I add pieces of cooked sausage.

You made me chuckle! It’s definitely a keeper of a recipe. ❤️
Actually, I'm making them for tonight's Christmas party!
Thomas you will not be disappointed at all. They were the best. I had left overs and my cute family asked for the left overs. Sooo good.

@@thomasbrooks8112 sooo awesome. That sounds amazing as well with the panko. Awesome sauce.

Thanks for watching.
thank you. lol. it's snowing here again so guess what I'm making tonight. going to do the meatballs too!.
Thank you
You're welcome! Thanks for watching, hope you're willing to subscribe as well.
For an easy topping add crushed Ritz Crackers without butter.
I prefer cream of mushroom soup instead of cream of chicken.
My sister makes 💣 BOMB 💣 funeral potatoes. It's become one of my favorite potato side dishes. 🥔❤️
Good food is awesome!
This is exactly how I remember it!
Gotta try these
Thank you for helping 😌☺️
Happy to help! Thanks for watching

Definitely! I’ll can do mashed potatoes too!
We call them party potatoes. A little more lighthearted lol
Party potatoes, is a much more light hearted term for them.
We always called them either funeral potatoes or relief society potatoes. 😊
We just call it hashbrown casserole. Lol 🤷♂️ . We put crushed ripple chips and cream of mushroom soup instead in our version 🙂
I bet potato chips would make it taste even better! Yummy!
What could you substitute for the cream of chicken?
Any canned cream soup would work, celery, mushroom, etc.
@KeriPratt can one do it at home instead of buying it canned? Would homemade bechamel sauce work instead?
Our family does a version we call Schwartz’s potatoes
How does it vary?
Great ❤
Thanks for watching!
@@KeriPratt no problem
My sister tryed Lay's potatoe chips over the cheese
I’ve been told that it’s delicious 😋
I might do lays cornflakes and cheese
There's a cutie dog in the background
Thats Harper, she’s a 6 yr old yellow Labrador ❤️
@@KeriPratt she's beautiful
@@josiebare3007 awww thank you! We love her very much.
@KeriPratt thanks for the funeral potato recipe. Making for dinner tonight

TIA from Minnesota
It’s 1/2 cup of melted butter and then the topping is 2 cups crushed cornflakes with 2 Tbsp butter.
Recipe starts about 1:18 or so.
I think sometimes we use too much cheese, because the cheap cheese has so little flavor. Buy good cheese and only use a little.
Is there a cheese type that is traditionally used?
@anotherdave5107
It's like wine. If it tastes good to drink or eat by itself, it'll taste good in the dish.
Never heard of them
Thanks for watching.
We love Carol. Where is Carol?
Carol is 4.5 hours away at home ❤️
@@KeriPratt we also love Ray
@@huntersloan7132 me too! ❤️

I’m definitely learning as I go! It’s a steep learning curve for this 46 yr old! Thanks for the feedback and suggestions.
