Was it definitely a veggie stock cube, not a beef one?

Yep just a knorr veggy cube. Im wondering if its the starch in the potatoes as it tastes sweetish?

Was it a stock cube of a kind you have used before?

It tastes a bit sweet, horrible it'll be going in the recycle bin when I've sieved it

No I didn't fry them off so they just went in the pan with water and stock cube as normal so I'm stumped 🤷‍♀️

My thoughts that it was the potatoes

It looks as though some of your potatoes might have got a bit scorched. Did you fry them off before adding the liquid? The colour from the browned potatoes could be what is turning it brown.

How does it taste?
