THE WORLDWIDE BAKED POTATO SENSATION, BEN NEWMAN, HAS LAUNCHED HIS FIRST BOOK OF RECIPES
SOCIAL media sensation Ben Newman, aka Spud Man, has launched his first book of potato recipes.
Ben is known for turning the the baked potato into an artform, with customers travelling from across the world to taste the baked potato dishes he serves from his cart in his home town of Tamworth.
With his lavish pink Mohican and cheery personality, he adopted the business name of Spud Man and regularly posts videos on TikTok (@Spudman) where he’s built up a huge list of followers. He lives with his wife, Sarah, who he’s fondly nicknamed SpudWife, and their nine kids.
Ben has also been awarded Freedom of the Borough in Tamworth, in recognition of his entrepreneurship, innovation, and courage.
His newly-released Baked Potato Cookbook features 40 recipes for baked potato combos and various spin-off dishes. Recipes include: Lebanese chicken shawarma, the currywurst jacket, chorizo shakshuka, pizza loaded potato skins, poutine-style cheesy spuds and many more.
The book has been published by Harper Collins and is also available in e-book and audio versions.
