Prep Time 15 minutes

Cooking Time 30 minutes

Ingredients

½ cup extra virgin olive oil, for roasting
8 large roasting potatoes, peeled, washed, dried and cut into even-sized chunks

Method

1. Preheat the oven to 200°C. Brush a large metal baking tray with olive oil, and place the potatoes in the tray in a single layer. Don’t overcrowd the tray – the potatoes must crisp, not steam. Drizzle liberally with olive oil, season and roast until golden.
