Ingredients
  

  • Oakhill potatoes: 6 roughly 1.5 lbs or 680 grams
  • Olive oil: A good glug about 3 tablespoons (45 ml)
  • Crunchy sea salt: Just a pinch around 1 teaspoon (5 grams)
  • Cracked black pepper: About 1/2 teaspoon 2.5 grams
  • Rosemary: 2 fresh sprigs because fresh is best
  • Garlic: 3 cloves finely chopped because garlic makes everything better!

Method

  2. Get a pot, fill it with water and pop the Oakhill potatoes in.
  3. Light the stove and let the water bubble away until those potatoes are just about tender.
  4. While you wait, why not mix? Combine that lovely olive oil with garlic, sea salt, and black pepper in your favorite mixing bowl.
  5. Get that oven humming at 400°F (200°C).
  6. Drain those Oakhill potatoes and let them just chill for a bit.
  7. Feeling artistic? Slice each potato in half and lay them out on a tray.
  8. Now, paint those potatoes with the olive oil mix.
  9. Sprinkle the rosemary; it’s like adding nature’s confetti.
  10. In they go into the oven. Roast them until they’re crispy and have a golden tan – usually around 25-30 minutes.
  11. And voila! Let them cool a touch before diving in.
