Title: Crispy Roast Potatoes
Categories: Five, Potatoes, Herbs
Yield: 4 servings
2 1/4 lb (1 kg) floury Maris Piper or
- red-skin Rooster potatoes
1/2 c (120 g) lard or duck fat
1 ts Maldon salt
1 tb Fresh thyme leaves
Set the oven @ 220C/425F.
Peel the potatoes and chop into chunky pieces a little
bigger than a ping pong ball (approx 2"/5cm across).
Place in a pan and cover with cold water. Place on the
hob on a high heat and bring to the boil, then turn down
the heat and simmer for 8-9 minutes - until softened at
the edges.
Meanwhile, place the lard or (goose fat if using) in a
large roasting tin and place in the oven to for 10
minutes until shimmering hot.
Drain the potatoes in a colander, and give them a good
shake to really roughen up the edges. Don't worry if a
few break apart and they look overly fluffy. The more
fluffy they are, the better they'll absorb the fat and
the crispier they'll be.
Carefully place the potatoes - using tongs - in the
baking tin with the hot fat. Turn them over once to coat
in the fat and then place in the oven.
Cook for 30-35 minutes, turning once or twice in the
last 15 minutes of cooking, until golden brown and
crispy.
Remove from the roasting tin and serve topped with a
sprinkling of Maldon salt and some fresh thyme leaves.
