Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 1.5 lbs Yukon Gold Potatoes 680g, cut into 1-inch irregular chunks
  • 3 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil 45ml
  • 4 tbsp Unsalted Butter 56g
  • 4-6 cloves Garlic Finely minced
  • 2 tbsp Fresh Parsley 30ml, finely chopped
  • 1 tsp Flaky Sea Salt 5ml, for finishing

Equipment

  • 1 Large Baking Sheet Preheat for best results
  • 1 Large pot For par-boiling

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Place potato chunks in salted water, bring to a boil, and simmer for 5-7 minutes until edges are softened. Drain and steam dry.
  2. Shake the potatoes in the colander to create a rough surface. Toss with olive oil on a preheated baking sheet.
  3. Roast at 425°F (220°C) for 25-30 minutes until skins are blistered and edges are charred and golden-brown.
  4. Melt butter with minced garlic for 2 minutes. Pour over hot potatoes, add parsley and sea salt, and toss to create a glossy sheen.

Notes

Always par-boil for the fluffiest interior.
Do not add garlic at the start of roasting to prevent burning.
