This was instead of peeling the skins off before cooking the potatoes, which is the traditional method. Sign up for the Showbiz newsletter Thank you! The move divided fans in the comments, with some unsure over the method. “Why don’t you peel the spuds first?” asked one. “Why would not peel the potatoes before?” agreed another. A third said: “It looks nice and he obviously loves cooking… weirdest way to do potatoes though…? Like if they’re going to to be mashed up anyway.” However, some agreed with Brooklyn’s method and said they did the same at home. “Because it’s easier and less time consuming the way he did it,” hit back one, a follower argued back. Most read in Showbiz “It’s much easier to peel after cooking the potatoes,” agreed a second. Brooklyn did also take to the comment section of the post to remind fans he isn’t a professional chef. The famous son of David and Victoria wrote: “I’m obviously not a professional chef haha x just love cooking and eating xx love all the lovely comments.” Whilst he may not be a professional, Brooklyn often shares cooking videos online and has fronted digital series such as Cookin’ With Brooklyn. However, the star – who has also attempted careers in the likes of photography and modelling – is often subjected to backlash over his creations. Comment now
