Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use other types of potatoes for this recipe?
Yes, you can use other varieties such as Yukon Gold or red potatoes. Each type will impart a slightly different texture and flavor, so feel free to experiment based on your preference.
What can I substitute for mushrooms if I'm allergic?
If you're allergic to mushrooms, consider using diced zucchini or eggplant as a substitute. Both will absorb the flavors of the dish and provide a nice texture without compromising the overall taste.
