Winter's here, I made my first batch of roast potatoes since last winter, and by God they were good.
My change this time — boil them for twice as long as whatever traditional recipe suggests, then drain, oil & salt, cover with a lid and swirl and jumble before putting in the oven to roast.
- Oh, and add a bit more oil a third way through roasting, then shoogle again.detritus
- Oh, and start them 20-30 minutes before you think you need to. I think THAT is the main secret to getting these otherwise easy fuckers cooked well.detritus
- No boiling. Steam! Steam with salt, little spice and then bake!mugwart
- I worked in a caff that put on a roast to help out another venue. No big ovens so we deep-fried the spuds, they were the best roasties ever, apparently.MrT
