Method

Step one

Heat the oven to 200°C, 400°F, gas mark 7.

Step two

Cook the potatoes in a large pan of boiling water for 5 minutes. Drain well in a colander, then shake around to rough up the edges.

Step three

Put the duck fat in a solid, shallow roasting tin and place the tin in the oven to heat up.

Step four

Sprinkle flour over the potatoes and toss them until they are evenly coated. Tip the potatoes carefully into the hot fat and turn them over so each one is coated in fat. Season with salt.

Step five

Roast them in the oven for 50 minutes to 1 hour, turning them over halfway through so that they cook until crisp, golden and cooked through.

Tips

Allow approximately 225g potatoes, per portion. Add a few sprigs of thyme and rosemary for flavour.
