Ingredients
savoury roast potatoes method
Step: 1 Turn the oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Tip the oil into a large, deep roasting tin and put in the oven to heat up for at least 20 mins. Skin the potatoes, and cut in half if small, or into quarters if large. Tip into a pan of well-salted cold water and boil for 8 mins until almost soft, and then drain. Leave it to steam-dry for about 10 minutes, then slowly shake to fluff the potatoes up a bit.
Step: 2 Take out the roasting tin from the oven, collapse it in the stock cube, and stir gently into the oil. Put the potatoes in and gently toss to coat them, then flavour and toss again. Roast in the oven for 1 hour until golden, tossing the potatoes a few times to even browning.
