Ingredients

  • Olive Oil: 100ml olive oil
  • Paprika: 2 tsp smoked paprika
  • Potato: 1 1/2 kg floury potatoes (such as Maris Piper, King Edward or Desiree), peeled and cut into halves or quarters, depending on size

Directions

  1. Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Add the potatoes to a pan of cold salted water, bring to a boil, then simmer for 5 mins until partly tender. Drain and steam dry for a few mins in a colander.
  2. Return the potatoes to the saucepan, and add the oil, paprika and plenty of salt and pepper. Cover with a lid, then shake the pan around to roughen the edges of the potatoes and thoroughly coat them in the paprika and oil. Tip the potatoes into a large roasting tin, making sure they are evenly spaced apart. Scrape in all the fluffy potato mess - these make the best crispy bits!
  3. Roast the potatoes for 1 hr 15 mins, turning halfway, until extremely fluffy and crisp.
