How eggs may be used to add nutrients to mashed potatoes?
Mashed potatoes are usually made with potatoes, milk or cream, and perhaps butter. It is also popular to add cheese, roasted garlic, or other extras to mashed potatoes. One reason eggs might be mixed into mashed potatoes would be when preparing a batter for potato pancakes. ....................................... You can add an egg or two - whole eggs, or just the yolks - to potatoes after the milk, cream, or butter. Just push the potatoes out to the sides of the pan, drop in the just-beaten eggs and mix through. The potato mixture should still be warm, not hot. Add only sufficient egg to incorporate without the mixture becoming too soft; add one at a time if unsure. The added egg has the effect of making the mashed potato a little firmer on reheating, if you use the excellent option of making more than you immediately need and refrigerating the rest. Once the potato has been refrigerated overnight you can cut it into slices and fry in butter for a delicious light meal. A traditional Irish breakfast is bacon, started in a cold pan and fried on medium heat until crisp; set aside, raise heat to medium-high and put a couple of slices of yesterday's mashed potatoes into the bacon fat (with a little butter, heated to foaming, if you like). Fry until browned on each side, set aside and keep warm while you quickly fry one egg per potato slice. Serve each potato slice with an egg on top, bacon on the side: you'll be glad you did! You can also cut the mashed potato into squares and bake, as for duchess potatoes, below. Adding egg to mashed potato is also good when using the potato as topping for a baked dish; the potato becomes firmer on baking, and is crisper on top. Side dishes such as duchess potatoes (potato cakes) are made by mashing potatoes, butter and egg yolks together. Spoon or pipe into small heaps, about the size of a half-apple, onto a nonstick or greased tray or baking paper, brush lightly with egg yolk (beaten with sufficient water to make it coat the potato easily) and bake at 200C (400F) for about 20 minutes or until lightly browned. Use a proportion of two yolks to 750g (24oz) potatoes when making duchess potatoes. Plain mashed potatoes and potatoes mashed with egg can be frozen. Duchess potatoes can be made a couple of days ahead and refrigerated, covered, until ready to bake. For a quick meal, slide a tray of pre-made duchess potatoes into the oven while you cook lamb chops or cutlets in a pan. Use wine or stock to deglaze the pan and reduce to make gravy; serve with a green vegetable if you like, and the potato cakes.

How do I thicken macaroni and cheese?
If you have added too much liquid to mashed potatoes a "quick fix" is to add a couple of tablespoons of instant mashed potato flakes. If you add another cooked root vegetable to the pot you will alter the flavour but get a better consistency. (try carrots, parsnips, turnip, or sweet potato - just do not add any more liquid)You could also: Add an egg and stir for 5 minutes. Repeat until desired consistency is reached.
How many eggs should you add to 15 pounds of potatoes to make potato salad?
Depends on your tasate, but that is a lot of potato salad. Making a "regular" batch (not large) at home with about 5 lbs. of potatoes, I would add at least 5 eggs and I presume you are speaking of hard boiled eggs. (So you can do the math.) I have a German friend who soft cooks the egg (the yolk is slightly runny) and adds hers that way, not requiring as many eggs and good in flavor.
Do you add an e at the end of potato?
