Potato duff

I tried making the potato duff, and I'm afraid it tasted exactly as one would expect from a dish of Duchess potatoes with dried fruit stirred in :-(

You couldn't detect the nutmeg or strawberry jam, or even the three tablespoons of sugar and the lemon zest and juice; it just resembled unseasoned mashed potato.

I put the remainder back in the oven to cook some more, to see if it improved when dried out to something more resembling a potato pan scone...
