Number Of Ingredients 4

2 pounds, 3 ounces potatoes,
Olive oil
Salt and ground black pepper
A handful of rosemary leaves

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Cook the potatoes in salted boiling water for about 15 minutes, or until your knife slides easily through them. Drain and leave for 5 mins. Drizzle a roasting tray with a little olive oil and any handy pork fat. Season, then throw in the potatoes, and push down on each of them to break them up slightly. Then pound up the rosemary in a pestle and mortar to bruise and release its flavours. Add 4 good lugs of olive oil, stir around, and drizzle over the potatoes. Roast for 40 to 50 minutes at 425 degrees F (220 degrees C/gas 7) until crisp and golden.

Tips:

  • To achieve crispy and golden-brown potatoes, ensure the oven temperature is high enough before roasting. This will help create a caramelized exterior while keeping the insides fluffy.
  • Use a variety of potato sizes and shapes for a more interesting texture and visual appeal. Smaller potatoes will crisp up more, while larger ones will have a softer, creamier interior.
  • Toss the potatoes in a mixture of olive oil, salt, and pepper before roasting. This will help enhance their flavor and create a delicious crust.
  • Add herbs and spices to the potatoes for extra flavor. Some popular options include rosemary, thyme, paprika, and garlic powder.
  • Roast the potatoes until they are tender on the inside and crispy on the outside. The exact cooking time will depend on the size and type of potatoes you are using.
  • Garnish the roasted potatoes with fresh herbs, grated Parmesan cheese, or a drizzle of olive oil before serving.
