    Roast potatoes

    • Preparation time: 10 minutes
    • Cooking time: 70 minutes
    • Total time: 1 hour 20 minutes 60 minutes 20 minutes

    Serves: 6

    Ingredients

    1.5kg large king edward or maris piper potatoes, peeled
    200ml olive oil (or goose fat)

    Method

    1. Preheat the oven to 200°C, gas mark 6. Cut the potatoes into large, equal-sized pieces. Put in a large pan and cover with cold water. Cover with a lid, bring to the boil and simmer for 5 minutes. Pour the oil into a roasting tin and put in the oven.

    2. Drain the potatoes. Return to the pan and shake vigorously to roughen up. Place in one layer in the tin; turn in the hot oil to coat evenly – they should sizzle.

    3. Season and roast for 1 hour, turning halfway through, until golden and crisp. Transfer to a bowl immediately and leave to cool a little before serving.
