I love these potatoes and they are very handy if you want roast potatoes in a shorter time, they are also a little healthier than ordinary roast potatoes as you leave the skins on use less fat.
Preheat oven to 200°c or gas 7
Take each potato and scrub clean under running water. Place the potato on either a wooden or metal spoon and then slice through the potato sideways (the shorter way) to the lip of the spoon so that you don't cut right through the potato. Place the potatoes on a baking sheet and drizzle each one with sunflower oil and then season with ground salt and pepper according to your preference. I usually leave them alone at this point but you can add grated cheese of your choice over the top or cut slices of cheese to stick in between each fan of the potato.
Bake for 35 to 40 minutes
My daughter has never been overly interested in food, unless it is pizza or chocolate. Whilst cooking is definitely not one of her interests, as university approached the need to be able to cook slowly dawned. We experimented with inexpensive and simple recipes, which she began to ask me to email to friends. Those emails were the foundation of this blog.
