Ingredients
 
 

  • 1 kg Maris Pipers Potatoes
  • 100 g Goose Fat
  • 1 tsp Salt (Or To Taste)
  • 1 tsp Plain Flour

Herbs & Flavours(Optional)

  • 3 Rosemary Sprigs
  • 3 Garlic Cloves

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 220°C (200°C Fan, gas mark 6). Peel and chop the potatoes into even-sized quarters (chop smaller potatoes in halves or thirds).
    1 kg Maris Pipers Potatoes
  • Place the potatoes in a saucepan, add water and salt (optional), and bring to a boil. Once boiling, simmer for 8 to 10 minutes or until the outside has softened and the middle remains firm.
  • During this time, spoon goose fat onto a roasting tray and place the tray in the oven to heat the fat.

  • Drain the potatoes in a colander and give it a shake to ‘rough up’ the edges and create a textured surface. Sprinkle a teaspoon of plain flour over the potatoes and shake the potatoes again to help evenly distribute the flour. Allow the potatoes to steam dry for 5 minutes.
    1 tsp Plain Flour
  • Carefully remove the roasting tray from the oven, add the potatoes and gently turn them over into the oil to ensure an even coating. Add salt, rosemary sprigs and garlic cloves for extra flavour.

  • Place the tray back into the oven and roast for 30 minutes or until beautifully golden brown and crispy. Turn the potatoes over halfway through the cooking time.
