Method

Preheat the oven to gas 7, 220°C, fan 200°C; pop in a roasting tray to heat. Boil the potatoes in a pan of water for 12-15 mins until tender. Drain and steam dry for 5 mins in a colander.
Tip the potatoes into the preheated tray and use the bottom of a glass to crush lightly. Trim and halve the leeks, then split through the middle and add to the tray. Drizzle the veg with 2 tbsp olive oil; season. Toss to coat, then roast for 35-40 mins, turning halfway, until golden and crisp.
Meanwhile, put the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil, thyme, parsley, chives, cider vinegar and a pinch of salt in a bowl; stir until combined. Pour over the veg, tossing to coat, then serve.
