Ingredients
2 kg of floury potatoes
salt
pepper
8 garlic cloves
4 sprigs of rosemary
olive oil
Method
- Peel the potatoes and cut them into quarters (or smaller if the potatoes are large).
- Bring a large pan of salted water to the boil, parboil the potatoes for ten minutes, strain off the water and shake the potatoes in the pan a little to bash them around a bit. (But don't go over the top!)
- Heat the oven to 180oC, put a large roasting tray or two in the oven, with plenty of oil in them.
- When the oil is hot, add the potatoes, sprinkle plenty of salt and pepper over them, add the unpeeled garlic cloves and rosemary sprigs, and roast for 1.5 hours, turning halfway through and checking from time to time to make sure they are not burning.
