I've finally remembered to take a photo of my finished cooked potatoes!
(For Normal and Fan ovens - you will need a hot oven at 240c and use the middle shelf of your oven)
1. Boil for around 10 mins or until you can scrape a fork along the outside, if it fluffs easily it's ready. Now, that's probably the only handy thing I learnt in Home Economics at St Hilda's RC School Burnley from Mrs Hall! 😆💕 Oh how I hated Home Ec!
2. Drain and keep the potatoes in the pan.
3. Sprinkle over the top of the drained potatoes with a good coating of Semolina Powder (I pour from the pack so see the photo below for an idea of how much I pour on. UPDATED - for a serves 4-5 people at 4-5 pieces of cut potatoes each you need around 25g.
4. Put the lid back on the pan and gently shake to coat potatoes with Semolina.
5. Put a Roasting tray on the floor of the roasting oven with a good 1-2mm coating of Crisp n Dry and leave for 5 mins for the oil to get nice and hot. Conventional ovens put your roasting tin in the centre of the oven preheated to 240c.
6. Place potatoes in the hot oil in roasting tray flat side down and cook for 10 minutes. Turn and cook for another 10 minutes. Keep turning every 10 minutes for a total cooking time of 40 minutes (or until nice and crispy depending on how hot your Aga or Normal Oven is).
Enjoy xxxx
Thanks to Nigella (via Feast book) for the Semolina tip! It never fails!
