Serves 4 people.
Ingredients:
🥔 1kg potatoes - (Maris Piper or King Edwards are best for a crispy exterior and fluffy interior)🦆 100 ml olive oil (use sunflower oil for plant-based)
🌾 2 tsp of flour
🌿 Salt, pepper and rosemary to season
Step1️⃣: Prep
- Peel and chop the potatoes into thirds or quarters - those pointy corners are good to catch the fat and create crispiness!
- Rinse them under cold water until it runs clear to remove excess starch before filling a large pan with salted water and adding the potatoes
- Bring to the boil, then reduce to a simmer for 25 minutes (until they are tender)
- Heat the oven to 180C and pop a large baking tray into the oven to warm with 5mm of oil in the bottom
- Drain the potatoes and allow to cool laid out on a wire rack
Step2️⃣: Roast
- Take out the hot roasting pan from the oven and place out the potatoes evenly, not to touch each other
- Add oil on top of the potatoes before placing them in the oven
- Roast for 20 minutes
Step3️⃣: During
- Flip the potatoes before roasting for a further 20 minutes
- Turn once more - it’s the flipping of the potatoes which creates the classic Christmas roast potatoes
- Turn again and return to the oven for a further 20 minutes (total roast time should be 60 minutes)
Step5️⃣: Seasoning
- After taking them out of the oven, sprinkle any seasoning of choice
- Here at Seep we love some rosemary with our Christmas roasties to add that extra festive spirit
