Top quality roast potatoes are a key ingredient of any Sunday roast.
We all have one person in our family who we trust to take responsibility for the roasties and no one else is allowed to go near them.
But that may all be about to change after a creative home cook shared a foolproof method to get the potatoes perfectly crispy every time, as reported by the Daily Star.
Dad-of-six Andrew Price has honed his method and recently shared mouthwatering photos of his creation on the Rate My Plate Éire Facebook group, leaving others desperate to know how he achieved it.
Sharing the recipe, the lorry driver from Limerick revealed you'll need some peeled and chopped potatoes, salt, pepper, garlic, an onion - and the key addition of two OXO cubes.
Andrew uses chicken stock cubes, but says it can easily be substituted for others including beef or vegetable if needed.
Sharing the method, he wrote: "Par boil your potatoes and put them in oven-proof dish.
"Toss in oil and add the OXO cubes [made into liquid stock with half a cup of water] and seasoning."
He also throws chopped onion and garlic cloves into the dish for extra flavour and then puts them into the oven at 160C for three hours.
Yep, Andrew slow cooks his potatoes to ensure they turn out delicious and crunchy, as he added: "Low and slow is best."
And looking at the pictures of the final results, we will not be one to question his logic.
It also left other members in awe, with one writing: "I’m crying as I lick my screen! They look amazing and I’m so hungry!”
Another replied: "They look fabulous, I can taste the flavours through the screen – mouthwatering."
Andrew said he hopes sharing his cooking hacks helps others and inspires them to cook different meals at home - and we'll certainly be giving this one a try.
