In the lead-up to Christmas, I was planning the meal which my family would partake of, and I needed a potato dish. I had read a news article about the queen of England just a few minutes before, and The Sex Pistols song "God Save the Queen" popped into my head. Then, it struck: Potatoes au Rotten, named for the lead singer, Johnny Rotten. I would make a spiced up version of the regular dish, and give it spiky, red hair with the addition of shredded carrots on the top. A side dish was born.
Recipes, road food suggestions, and musings from Gary L. Quay, the who, while not a chef, is very impatient.

The Impatient Chef Recipe: Potatoes au Rotten
Sometimes a name just pops into your head, and it won't let go. And sometimes, even though the name is not at all appetizing, you have to make the dish around it. This is one such occasion.
