Are you boiling them in heavily salted water to then roast off for 10 mins in the oven ??

 

Great with fish as the salt crystalises on the outside.

 

Oh BTW quids in on 21:16 for the finish time.

 

Ah? Salted water eh? Then roast them eh? Never thought of that before. Sounds like a good idea, sort of like a pseudo-roastie! thanks for the tip.

When I am feeling cheap and lazy I quite like a cold potato salad with potatoes from a tin. A few herbs and some olive oil to lift the deal and you could almost sell it to your mum!

 

'tis a good point. tinned spuds aren't that bad. just expensive compared to home-grown ones.

Speaking of potatoes i don't think you can beat a good cold potatoe salad with a generous helping of salad cream (or mayo) and some chopped onion !!

 

God i fancy a BBQ

Probably true but I have come to realise that growing spuds involves some effort and it is not my core business. I would neglect them after investing in tatty barrels and some form of fertiliser. Even if I was successful I would have too many at one go and I would have to give them away. So, for me, the odd can of value tinned potatoes at 20p a pop is the cupboard answer for the odd desire I have. But I admire your sentiments 1976!

I can now confirm that my potatoes are cooked, drained and plated.

 

Anything you eat after 7 stays with you!

 

The only time I lost a decent amount of weight as a child was when I stopped eating potatoes. They're bad.
