Ultimate easy roast potatoes

Serves 8

Difficulty Easy

Prep Time 20 minutes

Cooking Time 1 hour 15 minutes

Ingredients

1.5 kg potatoes, peeled and halved
olive oil, for drizzling
butter, for roasting
good-quality sea salt flakes, to taste

Method

1. Preheat the oven to 200°C. Simmer the potatoes for 15 minutes until almost cooked – the tip of a knife should pierce but not break them up.

2. Drain, return to the saucepan and shake to roughen up the edges. They should be completely dry.

3. Place the potatoes in a deep, preheated roasting pan, drizzle with olive oil and add a few knobs of butter. Season with salt. Roast for 45–60 minutes, turning every 15 minutes to create a crust.
