Jersey Royals are a real Easter treat and are slightly more expensive but well worth the extra, especially as it's Easter. Sometimes fresh, new potatoes burst out of their skins when they are cooked, so this way it ensures not only a perfect cook but also a great flavour boost.
Ingredients
- 500 g Jersey Royal potatoes
- 85 g unsalted butter
- 4 tbsp olive oil
- 4 sprigs fresh rosemary
- 2 cloves garlic skin on
- salt
- freshly milled black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200C/400F/Gas 6.
- In a saucepan, heat the oil and butter until just sizzling.
- Add the garlic cloves, rosemary and cook for 1 minute over low heat.
- Wash the potatoes well and place them in a baking tray so they fit nice and snug.
- Pour over the oil, butter and rosemary mixture and season well with salt and pepper.
- Cover tightly with foil and warm on the top of the stove to start cooking, and this is important. Once hot, they will start to cook the minute you place them in the oven.
- Pop into the preheated oven, and cook for 30 minutes, or until soft and juicy.
- Remove from the oven, keep covered and serve in a bowl with the buttery juices poured over.
