    This were really nice. I couldn't get desiree so used normal baking potatoes. Still turned out great although I did have to roast them for 10 minutes more to give them that golden brown colour and crispness.

    Love these! I personally used fry lite instead of the olive oil, as too adapt them to fit in with the Slimming World plan I follow. A now, firm family favourite

    I also cooked the potatoes quite a bit longer, and had to use miscellaneous no-name potatoes. We loved the flavour, but found it still a bit greasy...that said, these will be back often by popular request.

    Very simple, but great recipe. Use a few sprigs of Rosemary and this will really set the dish off. CP

    My husband loved these and has requested them again so they must be good! Next time I make them though I am going to add the onion after about 10 minutes as it was very tasty but a little too crisp for my liking.

    Not bad at all, I already add red onions to my roast pots but I cut them a little thicker and they are lovely and sweet...

    Delicious! As I am a Yank, I used Yukon Gold for these and added half a pound of fresh broccoli florets at Step 3...so yummy my husband and I ate most of it from the baking sheet before it ever reached our plates.

    Agree with others - the onion needn't go in until after first 10 minutes. Also works really well if you combine with sweet potatoes.
