Ingredients

  • 8 desiree or pontiac potatoes, peeled, cut into 3 cm pieces
  • 1 tsp ground turmeric
  • 60 ml (¼ cup) vegetable oil

Instructions

Preheat a roasting pan in the oven to 200°C. Bring a saucepan of lightly salted water to the boil. Cook potatoes and turmeric for 10 minutes or until just tender, then drain. Return to pan, cover and shake vigorously to roughen up the edges.

Add potatoes and oil, and toss gently to coat. Roast for 40 minutes, turning halfway, or until crisp and golden. Sprinkle with sea salt and serve immediately.
