Ingredients - to serve two:
• 2-3 large potatoes
• Herbs and/or spices of your choice - garlic and basil are delicious!
• 2-3 large potatoes
• Herbs and/or spices of your choice - garlic and basil are delicious!
What to do:
• Pre-heat the oven and half fill a large saucepan with water - adding a pinch of salt if desired.
• Peel the potatoes before rinsing and cutting into your chosen shape and thickness - the thicker the potato, the longer it will take to cook.
• Place the cut potatoes into the saucepan and boil until soft - using the tip of a knife to check the potatoes texture by gently pricking its centre.
• Once boiled, drain the potatoes and place onto an oven tray sprayed with fry light - leaving plenty of space between the potatoes in order to allow them to cook quicker.
• Lightly spritz the potatoes with additional fry light before sprinkling with your chosen herbs - gently turning to ensure that both sides are thoroughly covered.
• Turn at regular intervals until the potatoes appear golden brown.
• Enjoy!
