Chop a few garlic cloves with some rosemary leaves put in olive oil add a little salt let the mixture marinade for an hour.

Cube tats with skin on boil them for 5 mins, drain and toss them in the mixture above and put into a hot oven.

(Bought our Oval tickets last November for 21st August - here's hoping ;))

From now on life will be revolving around the cricket. While OH does does gardening tomorrow I shall give the lounge a good do. I will even turn the cushions on his sofa so he will be really comfy. Organic cider in the fridge & a roast chicken dinner. He deserves it. He has worked sooooooo hard getting the lotty sorted for me. Bless him. He will be aching by the weekend due to lack of movement ;) ;) ;).
Hope you enjoy it Ninny.

I do a greek roast tats recipe ... good for early and maincrop spuds ...

50/50 mix of olive oil and vegetable oil (for cost reasons - the olive oil flavour is there)
chopped garlic
herb - I use thyme, but oregano, rosemary also work
black pepper - I add black pepper to almost everything now
lemon juice - the more the better !

make up the basting mixture above, and roast the potatoes as normal, tending to a low heat so they dont brown ...

The basting mix can be made into a sauce/gravy afterwards with veg water and thickening ...

Personally, this is the best method of cooking potatoes that I have come across so far ... and my family endorses that !
The impossible is just a journey away ...
