Cooking Skill - How to Peel a Potato

Leon - The standard potato and Debbie how are we going to go about peeling this?

Debbie - Right, first of all we take the potato and you need a good peeler, and you start peeling.

Leon - So you peel towards you?

Debbie - Yep peel towards you, being very careful not to catch your fingers.

Leon - Ok, so you pull the peeler towards you. Much easier than using a knife?

Debbie - It is yeah, so it doesn't slip. Would you like to have a go?

Leon - OK, yeah sure. So here we go, I am putting the peeler in here, pulling it towards myself.

Debbie - Be very careful not to cut yourself.

Leon - See even I can do it.

Debbie - That's it.
