Garlic Roast Potatoes

Garlic Roast Potatoes

By: Raquel Neofit

One of my best food memories growing up has always been roasted potato. I would fill up on them every time and then get into trouble because I wouldn’t eat anything else. (In my defence, there were some terribly over-boiled Brussels sprouts on that plate!)

Method


  • Place potatoes in a pot, cover with cold water and drop in the bay leaf, peppercorns and 3 garlic cloves.
