Lol I went into more detail than Marl
Sorry, I just tend to cook by trial and error, I love cooking.
Balls are just because I like balls (not really, just makes it easier to flatten them into neat shapes rather than raggy ones (stops them burning so much as well, but I reckon you know that
)

Gordon....I was taught to use up leftovers(there is too much food wasted today because people do not know what to do with it, to make it usable)...and done in the right way you would not know they were leftovers........and anyway, it isn't second hand mash....it's leftovers.

And maybe there is a reason why there was leftovers...maybe someone who should have been dining didn't.
When deciding if food is not suitable for consumption, you look at it, smell it, and give some to you other half...if he survives then it should be oK to eat.
Gordon...way back when...there were no fridges or freezers....we regularly ate stuff that had been sat on the cellar head for days......we cut the green off the cheese.......did we come to any harm?
I can't speak for you...but I certainly didn't.

I totally agree-if it smells okay it should be okay to eat.I even use food that's past its best before date, I can't stand being fussy about things like that, I'm grateful that I have the choice when it comes down to it.
