All about the Sides, 17 of 50. My favourite Roast Potatoes, there are so many different ways and methods I find this works best for me. There is a little extra work but its worth it. Its all in the technique really imparting flavour and achieving that glass like crunch with a fluffy centre. 1kg Maris piper potatoes Enough Beef\/chicken\/veg stock to cover the potatoes 150g duck fat\/beef dripping\/your chosen fat 10-15 garlic cloves 2 bay leaves 2 sprigs rosemary Few sprigs of thyme Salt1. Peel and cut the potato evenly, cover in the stock and bring up to a boil for approx 10 mins or when they are just fork tender. 2. Drain them but keep the stock to make a sauce or gravy, rough them up and let them dry for the best results dry them out uncovered in a fridge or freezer 3. Meanwhile infuse the duck fat with the garlic, bay, thyme and rosemary on a very low heat for approx 30-40 mins this will leave you with a bonus side of confit garlic. Strain it so its ready to use 4. Put the potatoes in a mixing bowl and pour over approx 1\/3 of the infused fat and a pinch of salt. Coat the potatoes well and set to one side 5. Heat the remaining fat in roasting tray before adding the coated potatoes roast at 220c for 45-50 mins turning every ten minutes, for the final 5 minutes drain off the fat. #series #reels #potato #roastpotatoes<\/p>\n

original sound – Chef Thom Bateman<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Chef Tom Bateman, from Stoke-on-Trent, may have just unveiled the secret formula to the perfect roast potatoes.<\/p>\n

In a video shared to his TikTok account, which boasts a whopping 2.5 million followers, Tom shared his recipe for garlic roast potatoes.<\/p>\n

The clip was part of his \u201cAll About The Sides\u201d series, which feature a variety of decadent side dishes.<\/p>\n

According to the chef, this recipe takes the crown among all his roast potato recipe after trying many different methods.<\/p>\n

In the video\u2019s voiceover, Tom explained: \u201cThis is part 17 of All About the sides. And I guess it was coming, really. These are my favourite roast potatoes.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cPut your potatoes evenly, then cover them in stock. I use beef stock. It’s gonna add more flavour and also acts as a base for a gravy.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen they just fork tender, drain them, rough them up and leave them to dry.<\/p>\n

\u201cI infuse the fat, which for me is duck fat, with garlic, bay, thyme and Rosemary. Just over low heat for about half an hour and you’ve also got comfy garlic then.\u201d<\/p>\n

Tom then highlighted his top tip for a nice, crispy exterior: \u201cCoat the potatoes with some of that fat before they go into the oven and a pinch of salt. This helps give the roasties a consistent finish.<\/p>\n

\u201cGet the rest of the fat raging hot in the tray before you add the potatoes.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou go into the oven, 220C for 50 minutes, turning every 10 minutes.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn the last 5 minutes, remove the fat and it should sound like this,\u201d the creator added as he included es soundbite of a crunch.\u201d<\/p>\n
