How to Make Roast Potatoes Three Ways
Ingredients:
- Maris Piper potatoes
- Butter
- Clementines
- Rosemary
- Garlic
- Extra virgin olive oil
- Goose fat
- Bay leaves
- Thyme
- Sage
- Salt and pepper
Step 1: Preparing the Potatoes
- Peel and chop the Maris Piper potatoes into chunks.
- Place the chopped potatoes in a colander and break them up slightly to create small flecks and flakes for crispy bits.
Step 2: Preparing the Roasting Trays
- Preheat the oven to the desired temperature.
- In tray number one, pour 3 tablespoons of cold-pressed extra virgin olive oil.
- Consider using goose fat as an alternative for added flavor.
- Add a few sprigs of rosemary under hot water to release natural oils, then place them in the tray.
- Leave the skin on a whole bulb of garlic to protect it and release its flavor gently.
- Add bay leaves, thyme, salt, and pepper to the tray.
- Drizzle olive oil over the garlic, clementines, butter, and sage.
Step 3: Roasting the Potatoes
- Place the prepared potatoes into the trays with the oil and seasonings.
- Roast the potatoes in the oven for about 40 minutes until they are steaming hot.
- After 40 minutes, remove the tray from the oven and place a potato masher on top of the potatoes.
- Gently press down with the masher to flatten the potatoes and create crispy edges.
- Return the tray to the oven and roast for an additional 10 minutes until golden and crispy.
Step 4: Serving
- Once cooked, the roast potatoes should be crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside.
- Enjoy the delicious aroma of the roast potatoes with the flavors of clementines, butter, rosemary, and garlic.
- Serve the roast potatoes as a side dish with your favorite main course or check out Jamie Oliver's website for gravy recipes to complement the dish.
