Thise roast potatoes recipe is my all time favourite. They are just the perfect crowd pleaser side dish.
My roast potatoes don't require a lot of time to prep but definitely need to roast in the oven for at least an hour.
If this recipe could replace french fries and tick the crispy on the outside, soft and fluffy on the inside criteria.
Once we achieve that I think they are in competition for a healthier side dish.
I have recently tried making a big batch of these roast potatoes and reheat them in a lightly oiled pan and boom! success.
As you may notice, I like to parboil my roast potatoes to save me more cooking time in the oven.
I suggest serving them with your roast chicken, any meat dish or even my Moroccan liver recipe.
