MMMmmmm! Crispy golden on the outside and fluffy on the inside. Sounds great. The tip about draining out all the oil and putting them back in the oven to finish crisping is a good one. I'll try that on Sunday.

I have never been able to cook the perfect roast potato - that is not until now - I tried you method and my kids and family went mad for them. They loved the fact that they were evenly crispy on the outside (not like my usual misshapen efforts which were always burnt on one edge and uncooked in the side)and lovely and fluffy on the inside thank you
