Method

  1. Preheat the oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C. Carefully make small vertical slits, 2mm apart, three-quarters of the way down each potato, all the way along. To make this easier, you can place the potatoes in between the handles of 2 wooden spoons – this will stop the knife from slicing all the way through.
  2. Put the potatoes in a large roasting tray. Mix together the butter, oil, garlic and rosemary and generously brush over the potatoes. Season and roast for 30 mins.
  3. Remove from the oven and brush them with the melted butter from the tray. Return to the oven and roast for a further 20 mins. Repeat once more, brushing the butter into the cuts in the potatoes and return to the oven for a further 10-15 mins, until golden and crispy around the edges. Serve immediately.
