Well, in English, adjectives will routinely precede the nouns which they modify; however, in Romanian, like other Romance languages, adjectives generally follow the nouns which they modify. As such, the word order between the two statements just has to be reversed. Although, the order of only the adjectives doesn't necessarily need to change, so they remain in the same order between the two sentences.
Yes because I would have used the word "potato" first then asked about how its cooked. Confused!
That's just how it works in Romanian. The adjectives generally follow the nouns which they modify, like in other Romance languages.

The word order is straightforward, my problem is that questions rely on intonation at the end of a statement, which is easy to miss, whereas in English the question would have been preceded by 'Is it...'
Unfortunately, some languages use only context and intonation as the primary difference between indicative and interrogative statements, at least yes-no questions. I mean, that's how Spanish works. However, I do not know if Romanian uses any other method for such questions.
Cooked ir boiled does not make any difference. So 'cooked" should be also correct
