It mashes smooth and has good texture after microwaving, they’re also excellent for roasting and frying. Kestrel Potatoes are an amazing nutrient dense food, low in calories and naturally low in fat.

HOW TO PICK
Pick spuds that feel firm and heavy. Kestrel’s naturally have purple eyes, make sure you avoid those with sprouting eyes, or green discolouration. For even cooking, choose potatoes that are similar in size.

HOW TO STORE
Store potatoes in a cool, dry place away from light - the kitchen cupboard is ideal
