Ingredients
175g (6oz) Potatoes per person
Pratt’s English Cold Pressed Rapeseed Oil
Preparation
Peel the potatoes and cut into large even-sized chunks. Rinse under cold running water to remove the excess starch.
1. Par boil the potatoes in lightly salted boiling water for 10 minutes.
2. Drain them and coat in the Pratts Cold Processed rape seed oil. Use 15ml (1 tblspn) /25g (1oz) Pratts rape seed oil for each 450g (1lb) of potatoes.
3. Roast in an oven preheated to 220°C/425°F/Gas mark 7 for approximately 45 minutes, turning twice.
4. Serve immediately
Tip
Always put the potatoes into hot oil (they will soak up less fat and will crisp up better). Roast potatoes will absorb the flavour of the oil. For extra crispy roast potatoes, either score the outside of the potato with a fork after par boiling or shake the pan to roughen up the outside.
