Step 2

Mix together the spices, salt and pepper.

Step 3

Peel and cut your potatoes into 1.5cm slices and then cut the slices to give 1.5cm x 1.5cm sticks. Now cut the sticks to produce 1.5cm dice.

Step 4

Rinse potato cubes in cold water and drain before patting dry with a clean tea towel.

Step 5

Evenly coat your diced potatoes with the oil.

Step 6

Toss with crushed garlic so it becomes evenly distributed over the oiled potato cubes.

Step 7

Sprinkle previously mixed spices, salt and pepper over your potatoes. Stir and turnover the potatoes so they are evenly coated with the seasoning mixture.

Step 8

Grease roasting tin with a little oil before evenly spacing your potato cubes on it. Allow plenty of room for air circulation between the cubes. If you don’t have a roasting tin which is large enough, use two tins to achieve maximum crispness.

Place your roasting tin/s of potatoes into pre-heated oven.

Cook for 30 minutes, turning the potatoes after 15 minutes.
