Ingredients

800g Agria potatoes
peeled and roughly chopped
75g duck fati
1 sprig fresh rosemary
roughly chopped
3 garlic cloves
roughly chopped

Method

Place the potatoes in a pot with cold salted water. Bring to the boil and then boil for 7 minutes.

Drain well and then return the pot with to a low heat to ensure the pot and the potatoes are completely dry.

Heat the oven to 200°C bake.

Cover the pot with a lid and then holding securely bang it against the bench or a concrete floor a few times to rough up the potatoes. At this stage you can add a little flour if you want to, we didn't.

Melt the duck fat in a roasting pan (large enough to take potatoes in a single layer) in the oven, once the fat is melted and hot then carefully add the potatoes to the tray.

Roast for 45 minutes or so, turning at times until well coloured.

Add rosemary and garlic to the pan for the last 15 minutes of cooking.

Serve hot with a good grind of flaky salt.
