Obviously you need to shop in M&S, they do £30 box:

I'm trying to work out how many actual meals I could make out of
that. It
appears a bit unbalanced with too much rice, too little pasta, and
presumably the corned beef and salmon are intended for sandwiches.


Corned beef + potatoes makes hash, if you have flour ( or pastry) ,
corned
beef and potato pie or pasties. Served with beans, quite a filling
meals.

( From WW2 I believe- I’m not that old but my mother used to serve
them, I
still enjoy them from time to time.)

Tinned salmon + potatoes could make fish cakes. Nice with some salad,
I recommend a Jewish Salad. ( We tend to use Mackerel but salmon or
tuna would work. I’m not that keen on salmon. )

I’m not a great pasta fan but don’t just think spaghetti etc. Look
at things like pasta bake - mixing it with broccoli, cauliflower, and
a cheese
sauce, and baking it in the oven.

You can put a lot of odd things into pastry if you don't have flour. If
it has lots of carbs it can generally go in. Strong flavoured things
like buckwheat are best kept to a low percentage. None are as sticky as
wheat, adding a little stickiness avoids it crumbling, there are
various sticky options, of which egg is most effective. I wouldn't add
the bogroll


True, although I’ve not tried it.

The is a recipe, made famous by a recent(ish) film using potato skins to
make a pie casing.

It was developed on the Channel Islands originally during WW2 and has
resurfaced but in a more refined form.

I’ve been meaning to try it. Perhaps I will. I’m always looking for
different ways to serve potatoes to add variety

I wouldn't mind trying that Share the recipe, please?

It's the wrong group for that, Ophelia

No its not, its clearly DIY.
