Method

  1. Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Cut the potatoes, skin left on, into fat chips. Toss with the olive oil, plenty of seasoning and the red onion, then tip onto a baking tray. Roast for 15-20 mins
  2. Turn oven up to 240C/fan 220C/gas 9. (If making as an accompaniment to Gordon's Rib eye steak, (see goes well with to the right), then turn the oven up when the steak is ready).
  3. Roast for 15-20 mins more, turning and adding the garlic to the tray with 10 mins cooking time to go.

    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.

    I make this often, but add chopped smoked bacon and lots of black pepper, goes well with cauliflower cheese. I always add other ingredients about 10 mins after the potatoes, if you add bacon it will take longer, Also works well with new potatoes.

    I agree with alot of the other comments onions not need to go in till 10 mins into cooking time. But all the same was very scrumy even for my preggy fiance who is only nibbling at stuff i cook her but she ate all of this. A******

    These were good, but I wouldn't add the onion until last 20 minutes or so as they were a bit overdone. Otherwise, tasty.

    I agree with the above comments, I added the onions 10 mins into the cooking time but they were still overcooked & not caramalised, just really crispy. But loved the addition of garlic at the end. Probably won't make again.
