Cooking Instructions
Perfect Goose Fat Roast Potatoes
Ingredients
- 1kg Irish potatoes
- 3–4 tbsp Goose Fat
- Sea salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 2–3 sprigs fresh rosemary
Method
- Peel the potatoes and cut into evenly sized pieces.
- Place in a large pan of cold salted water and bring to the boil.
- Parboil for 8–10 minutes, until the outside of the potatoes is beginning to soften but the centres remain firm.
- Drain well and leave to steam dry for a few minutes.
- Give the potatoes a good shake in the pan to roughen the edges. This is the secret to really crispy roast potatoes.
- Place the goose fat in a large roasting tray and put into a preheated fan oven at 200°C for a few minutes until the fat is properly hot.
- Carefully add the potatoes to the hot goose fat and turn them so they are well coated. Spread them out in a single layer — don't overcrowd the tray.
- Season generously with salt and pepper and add the rosemary.
- Roast for 45–60 minutes, turning the potatoes two or three times during cooking, until deeply golden, crisp and crunchy on the outside and fluffy inside.
- Serve immediately.
Butcher's tip: Goose fat gives roast potatoes an exceptional flavour and beautifully crisp exterior. For the best result, make sure the fat is really hot before the potatoes go into the roasting tray and don't overcrowd them.
Storage
Store in a cool, dark and dry place. Open the bag from the top, take out what you need, then simply roll the top down to help keep your potatoes fresh.
