Serves
8
Ingredients
1.5kg (3lb 5oz) potatoes
60ml (4tbsp) sunflower oil
Method
Preheat oven to 200°C, 400°F, gas mark 6. Peel the potatoes and cut into even-sized pieces. Place in a saucepan, pour over boiling water to just cover and simmer for 10 minutes.
Drain off water. Place the lid back on the saucepan and shake vigorously to roughen up the potatoes’ edges.
Place the oil in a 40cm x 30cm (16in x 12in) roasting tray. Heat in the oven until sizzling. Carefully add the potatoes, basting in the hot fat. Return to highest shelf in the oven and cook for 40–50 minutes until golden. Turn halfway through cooking. Serve immediately.
