Cook Time 1 hour

Servings 4

Ingredients
  

  • 700 g Maris Piper potatoes peeled and diced to walnut-sized pieces
  • 100 ml white wine
  • 125 unsalted butter
  • A few sprigs of thyme
  • 1 lemon
  • 3 cloves garlic

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 200°C. Simmer the potatoes in salted water until really tender. Drain and allow to steam off excess water a little while you prepare the baste.
  • Put a heavy baking tray in the oven to preheat. Add the wine, butter and thyme to a saucepan and bring to the boil, then immediately remove from the heat. Toss the potatoes in the buttery wine and tip on to the baking tray and roast.
  • After 20 mins, peel the lemon zest in strips and add to the baking tray along with the garlic. Toss the potatoes well to coat. If it's looking a bit dry add a dash of oil.
  • Roast for a further 20 mins, or until the potatoes are very crisp. Season with salt and pepper before serving.
