You need to use walnut oil for these. If you are not using walnut oil then you are not making Grandad’s roast potatoes.
Ingredients
Floury potatoes
Walnut oil
Salt
Equipment
A pan
A roasting tin
An oven at 220°C
- Peel the potates and rinse.
2. Cut the potatoes up into smallish pieces. As a guide, no bigger than a 25mm cube.
3. Bring a pan of salted water to the boil and add the potates. Parboil for 10 minutes.
4. Drain the potatoes and allowed to steam. Shake the potatoes in the pan to rough them up if you like.
5. Transfer to the roasting tin and drizzle with walnut oil. There should be enough walnut to cover the bottom of the tray with a thin layer.
6. Transfer to the oven until they are the colour you want, then serve.
