These potatoes are far from being plain, average or boring.
They are soft and fluffy on the inside. Crunchy in some
parts and chewy in others...
Potatoes that are boiled in their skins. Salted and then slow roasted in this particular way are nothing other than, amazing...
1kg Potatoes
1t Salt
Oil
1. Wash the potatoes thoroughly and remove any
bruises or knobs.
2. Keep the skins on the potatoes, then slice them into
wedges.
3. Put them into a large pot. Fill the pot with hot
water, until all the potatoes are covered.
4. Add the Salt and stir it through.
5. Boil it on Medium heat for 15 to 20 minutes or
until they are parboiled (cooked but still firm)
6. Pre-heat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius.
7. Drain all the water from the potatoes and place the potato wedges onto a foiled baking sheet.
9. Roast them in the oven for 30 to 40 minutes.
10. Check their progress from time to time and turn
each potato over gently, so that it can roast evenly on all sides. This makes
them soft and chewy.
11. Potatoes can be quite pale, so I switch my oven
onto Grill and brown them for another 5 to 10 minutes, until they are golden
brown.
