TIP
Peel the potatoes and start them cooking on the stovetop before you begin preparing the patties so both will be ready at about the same time.
You can freeze leftover tomato paste. Put tablespoons (15 mL) of leftover canned tomato paste on a waxed paper-lined plate or in ice-cube trays; freeze until firm. Transfer to a small freezer bag and have handy in the freezer to add to recipes.
