  So nice to have a new way to serve up potatoes! Strangely, I found the opposite to Rachel's comment (maybe it's just my hob) in that mine actually only took about five minutes to reduce down and crisp up on the stove. Ended up with gorgeous soft potatoes with gorgeously crispy skins in a beautiful garlic and herb reduction. Delicious served up cold the next day too.

  These are so nice. Absolutely addictive! I made an enormous pan, intending to use the extras for potato salad, and suddenly they had all disappeared

  Agree with Tracy - cannot see what all the hype is about - they just tasted like normal boiled potatoes... don't think I will be making these again...

  Hubby said it was the best spuds he's ever tasted. Daughter said they were too salty. Any idea how to reduce the saltiness from the stock? (no, I never added additional salt to the recipe). Myself, as cook thought they tasted great, quite a long cooking time, but minimal faff once they were underway: and all the ingredients were to hand - home grown.
