In this article I am going to share with you my personal recipe for making quite possibly the best roast potatoes ever! Everyone loves a good roast potato, crispy and golden on the outside while soft and fluffy on the inside... ummm... I am salivating just writing about them! There is nothing I love more that inviting my friends and family around for a Sunday roast and this may sound like bragging but I always get the most flattering compliments of my roast potatoes! So lets begin.
Rule 1: Only ever use Maris Piper Potato variety; I have experimented with every type of potato out there and this is by far the ultimate variety. Have a go with other potatoes if you like but i guarantee your friends and family will like the good old Maris Piper the best!

Rule 2: Cook in butter, not margarine or any i can not believe its not butter rubbish. If you really want a good spud then this rule is essential.
Okay so that is the "golden rules" covered lets get into what you need:
Ingredients:
1 Bag of good quality Maris Piper Roast Potatoes
1 packet of salted 100% butter
Some plain white flour
Salt
Equipment:
A large pan of boiling water
a roasting tin
a drainer to drain the spuds after par boiling them
Oven gloves
An oven!
Method:
Begin by peeling the spuds taking extra care to remove any black bits and "eyes". Then place the peeled spuds into a large pan of salted boiling water and boil for approximately 15 minutes or until the potatoes are soft on the outside. While you are waiting warm the oven up to 200 degrees Celsius then place a large amount of butter into a roasting dish and heat the dish until the butter has completely melted. Check the potatoes are done and drain off excess water, leave them in the pan and give them a good shake so the outside begins to break and turn into mash. Now sprinkle a nice amount of flour over the spuds and season with salt.
You are now ready to begin roasting! Carefully place the spuds in the heated roasting dish and immediately transfer back to the oven. They will take about an hour until they are crispy golden. Make sure to give them a good turn in the butter every 15 minutes or so. Congratulations you have made some very special roast potatoes indeed. I am sure you and your friends and family will love them! I hope you have enjoyed reading this article on how to make the perfect roast, good luck in your cooking efforts!
