    Roast potatoes are one of my most favourite food. I had never made them before, because I was going to require them to be perfect. I couldn't handle the disappointment otherwise. I decided to experiment at 10:30pm and make a small batch of these. I was blown away!! My husband and daughter slowly gravitated toward me and started picking off my plate. My husband isn't a big potato fan, but kept coming back for more. He said "I've never tasted roast potatoes this good before! What did you do?" I said "I listened to what Jamie Oliver said to do, and I did it!!" This is the new staple/go to potato in our house forevermore. So much gratitude to you Mr. Oliver; my food guru. X

    I made these a couple of days ago and my husband could not stop himself from eating almost all of them. A few changes I made (some of them I'm not sure if Jamie did but just didn't mention):
    - I used vegetable oil instead of olive oil because the latter doesn't do too well with high heat
    - I preheated the oil in the oven for about 10 minutes before putting the potatoes in
    - I made sure to get some of the preheated oil on all surfaces of the potatoes before they went in
    - I turned them over halfway through (before mashing them slightly as Jamie does)
    They were seriously the best roast potatoes I've ever had in my life.
    Something my mum used to do was gather up the pieces of potato that fall off when you shake them (so shake them in a pan instead of a colander) into a flat-ish ball, and roast that along with the whole potatoes. You get a really really nice chef's treat ;)
    Also, if you're in America and don't have access to Maris Piper potatoes, Idaho Russet Burbanks work really well.

      NOT true for the olive oil. it endures temperatures till 210C and it doesn't release any cancerous stuff, so olive oil >>>> all the other ones.

    • @johndaniels6347
      @johndaniels6347 Před 6 lety +14

      Refined olive oil can be used at temperatures of up to 210 degrees Celsius. It's extra virgin olive oil that has a low smoke point.

    @pizzaovenpizza Před 8 lety +18

    Love this! Best thing about this is the technique of squashing it down for more contact with the pan, I think that's what makes this perfect. You can put whatever type of oils you want, but the squashing thing makes all the difference!

And the clementine zest, Oh,Yes, Please! Never Dreamed that explosion in my mouth would happen. I am so happy I can still learn cooking tips and tricks. HowDee from the Great State of Texas.

  • @nerolia_gaming8030
    @nerolia_gaming8030 Před 7 lety +9

    Well I tried this today, it's great! And you don't have to use any herbs or spices actually to make it delicious.
    First boil them 10 min, then put it in the form with oil in it and turn them few times, use salt and pepper, then put in the oven for 20 min, then turn potatoes on the other side to make that crunchy surface on both sides (cuz it wasn't as the Jaimie's one if you don't oil it all over the place). Wait another 10-15 min and they are ready. Next time I'll try to cook it on the foil to keep the dishes clean :D

    I made these at home last week. I spent three weeks ministering in Kenya back in November and if you order roasted potatoes this is what you get, of course a lot in Kenya still has the British influence.
    We had these potatoes along with a venison tenderloin. I used the Rosemary and Sage as well. It was wonderful! Here in the United States we have a potato called the Yukon Gold which is really wonderful, and worked really nicely for this recipe!

    I made these. They were amazing. I bought sour cream as a topping. No leftovers... sigh

    Jamie, you're a genious! That tip about smashing the potatoes a little bit is absolutely incredible, so simple and yet so life-changing! LOL.
