Mine are going in now (there's only one of me hence single portion)
Seasoned, oiled and par boiled...about 40mins from being devoured. My baking tray filthy so foil in the grill pan.
Good job Pat, is that garlic on them?
Yes. The garlic roasts after 10mins, and I eat it, but flavour stays in the potatoes
Infusing the oil/lard with garlic beforehand allows time to remove before it gets bitter.
Top tip Toslti, gonna give that a try next.
My mom used to do the best roasters. Dont think it was duck fat, probably lard. Theyd all be nice and black at the bottom too
Have you tried roasted Whole heads of Garlic? That's a delightful starter with fresh bread rolls and a salsa.

How To Roast Garlic in the Oven
What You Need
Ingredients
- 1 or more heads of garlic
- Olive oil
- Equipment
- Knife
- Aluminum foil
Instructions
- Heat the oven to 400°F: Set a rack in the middle position.
- Peel (most of) the paper off the garlic: Use your fingers to peel away all the loose, papery, outer layers around the head of garlic. Leave the head itself intact with all the cloves connected.
- Trim the top off the head of garlic: Trim about 1/4 inch off the top of the head of garlic to expose the tops of the garlic cloves.
- Drizzle with olive oil: Drizzle 1 to 2 teaspoons of olive oil over the exposed surface of the garlic, letting the oil sink down into the cloves.
- Wrap in foil and bake: Wrap the garlic in aluminum foil and roast in the oven for 40 minutes.
- Begin checking the garlic: After 40 minutes, begin checking the garlic. The garlic is done when a center clove is completely soft when pierced with a paring knife. Even once soft, you can continue roasting until deeply golden for a more caramelized flavor — check the garlic every 10 minutes. Exact roasting time will depend on the size of your garlic, the variety, and its age.
- Use or store the garlic: Let the garlic cool slightly, and then serve. Press on the bottom of a clove to push it out of its paper. Roasted garlic can also be refrigerated for up to 2 weeks or frozen for up to 3 months.
Recipe Notes
- Speedy roasted garlic trick: While less visually stunning, separating the head of garlic into individual cloves will make the cloves roast more quickly. Leave the cloves intact and covered with their paper skin, toss with olive oil, and roast in a foil packet until soft.
Ways to Use Roasted Garlic
- Spread on bread or crackers
- Mashed into salad dressing
- Mashed into hummus, baba ganoush, or other spreads
- Used in place of raw garlic in soups, casseroles, and sauce"
A tray full of GOLD is not worth a moment in time.

Roasting... like a big pair of tits, improves almost everything.

20 minutes boiling for spuds for roasting. 30 minutes boiling for pasta.
It's obvious what's going on here. Chitty's kitchen timer runs fast. He's getting it all right but the times he notes have deceived him.
He can't post right now.
Relatives are coming round on Boxing Day and he needs to get the pasta started.
^That's professional comedian funny
^ You're lulutardin' again bud.
Those were King Edwards.
Go for a floury high-starch potato when doing roasties.
