    Very good. These potatoes definitely need to be watched toward the end for overbrowning as the recipe author notes. I followed the recipe exactly and baked for 40 minutes total. I'll bake them for 35-37 minutes next time since they were a smidge too crispy but otherwise delicious.

    Perfect Traditionally English Roast Potatoes,These are your standard traditional English roasties. IMO there is an art to making these, at least the perfect golden crispy kind that I grew up with. The trick is to give ’em a good shake in a colander after par-boiling to rough up the edges of the potatoes. Then once roasting; position spaced apart, turning only once or twice and basting in the hot oil every so often. If you don’t manage the crispy texture (which you will, if you do the above!), they’ll still taste excellent. You can’t go wrong. I sometimes like to sprinkle rosemary/paprika/thyme or even a little garlic on top of mine for extra flavour.,Very good.
