directions
Preheat the oven to 200C/400F/gas mark 6. Pour the vegetable oil into a large roasting tin and place in the oven to heat up. Cut the potatoes into even-sized chunks. Cook in a large pan of salted boiling water for 10 minutes. Drain and return to the pan. Shake the potatoes to dry and to roughen the edges to give them a crispy coating. When the oil is sizzling, add the potatoes. Spoon the fat over. Return to the oven for 45-50 minutes, basting and turning once or twice during cooking time or until golden and crispy.
