Potato Gem Casserole

If your kids are anything like mine, they LOVE potato gems!

And if you are anything like me, sometimes I just can’t be bothered going to all the trouble of making mashed potato…..  Soooooo…tater tots, potato royals, whatever you call them, these little balls of fluffy mash with a crispy golden coating are not only pretty cheap to buy, but fantastically versatile and they make the perfect topping to this Shepherd’s Pie type of creation – the Potato Gem Casserole is like a cheats way of making a mince pie!
