Instructions
Step 1
Get you potatoes into cold salted water and boil for 10-15 minutes until falling off the tip of the knife. You don't want them too mushy as they won't hold their shape.
Step 2
Drain off the potatoes and leave to steam dry in the colander with a tea towel over for a further 10-15 minutes. This makes them extra fluffy!
Step 3
Preheat the oven to 220°C Fan/475°F/Gas Mark 9 and get the oil into a baking tray and get it into the oven to get hot.
Step 4
Once the potatoes are ready, give them a good toss in the tray to fluff them up and then carefully pour into the hot tray with the oil.
Step 5
Cook for 20 minutes then remove from the oven. Turn the heat down to 180°C Fan/400°F/Gas Mark 6.
Step 6
Give the potatoes a turn and return to the oven for a further 15 minutes. You may need less/more time so keep an eye out.
Step 7
Once golden and crunch, they are ready to go! Sprinkle with a little more salt and enjoy the ultimate roasties!
