Is there anything better than roast potatoes? Take them to the next level by roasting them in duck fat… delicious!
Ingredients
12 medium-large agria potatoes, scrubbed
½ cup duck fat
2 tablespoons picked thyme leaves
Sea salt
Method
Preheat the oven to 180°C
On a chopping board, put a potato and along either side of its length, place a pair of chopsticks or wooden spoons (this helps to ensure that you won’t cut through to the base). Then cut thin slices across the potato
Place potatoes onto a baking paper-lined roasting dish. Repeat with the remaining potatoes
Melt the duck fat and combine with the thyme and brush over the potatoes, ensuring that some duck fat goes into the cut slices
Season generously with sea salt and bake for 60 mins until cooked through and golden. Baste with the duck fat halfway through cooking
