1. Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Scrub the baking potatoes, then pat dry. Slice lengthways into three. Drizzle olive oil over a large baking sheet. Place the potatoes on the baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, rub all over, then generously sprinkle with sea salt. Bake for 40-45 mins (longer for extra crispiness) turning halfway, until golden brown and tender.

  Really easy recipe. I sliced my potatoes into 4 though as they were still nice thick discs of potato! Unless you've got a really good, trusty non-stick baking tray (I haven't and keep meaning to invest in one) it's a good idea to use some bake-o-glide or similar because if the potatoes stick the crispy coating comes off and stays welded to the tray. Turning the potatoes regularly can help. The reason I mention all this is because I've followed so many recipes like this and been disappointed that lovely golden potatoes failed to tip out!

  So quick and easy to make, they make the perfect side with nearly any meal! However make sure you get a good non stick tray or put foil down first... otherwise they will stick!!
