Ingredients – Crispy Roast Potatoes
1.5 kilograms floury potatoes (e.g. Maris Piper or King Edward)
4 tablespoons sunflower oil
1 teaspoon sea salt
Method – Crispy Roast Potatoes
1. Preheat the oven to 210 C (fan) and place a large flat baking sheet in the oven to preheat
2. Place the potatoes in a pan and just cover with cold water. Add 1 teaspoon sea salt and bring to the boil
3. Reduce the heat and simmer the potatoes for approximately 20 minutes (depending upon the size) until just soft
4. Drain the potatoes and place back in the pan on a very low heat to evaporate any remaining water or moisture
5. Add the sunflower oil to the pan, put on the lid and shake to evenly distribute the oil and slightly break up the potatoes. This will add to the crispy texture
6. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and place the potatoes on the hot baking sheet. Spread out so they are one layer and not touching each other
7. Place in the oven and roast. After around 15 minutes turn the potatoes. Bake for approximately 30 minutes in total until golden and crispy. Serve.
