Gordon Ramsay is a fan of boiling, steaming and shaking up his Christmas roasties
Christmas Day is just around the corner, and if you're preparing the dinner this year, you might be concerned about how you'll make the roast potatoes.
Here are six different techniques you can use this Christmas to make your roast potatoes the best they've ever been. Preheat: Add fat to your roasting tray – duck or goose fat roast potatoes are great at Christmas, otherwise most oils work well and are useful for vegetarians and vegans. Put the tray in a hot oven for at least five minutes to heat through – the potatoes should sizzle when they're placed on it.
Added flavour: For a change, Gordon loves to add a little spice to his roast potatoes at Christmas – turmeric adds an earthy taste and amazing yellow colour, while chilli flakes add a little heat. Try any herbs and spices you like, just toss with the potatoes before roasting. Then, just cook them in the oven for 20 minutes. The egg white will make the skins much crispier and also help the seasoning bind to the potatoes .
