Ingredients
  • baby potatoes
  • 25 g butter
  • 2 tbsp Donegal Rapeseed Oil
  • 4 cloves of garlic (crushed)
  • handful of fresh thyme
  • handful of fresh parsley
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 200 C.
  2. Carefully cut slits into the potatoes,  stopping just before you cut through to the bottom so that the slices stay connected at the bottom of the potato.
  3. Place the fat into a Pyrex dish or deep tin and pop into the preheated oven for 2 minutes to melt.
  4. Add the potatoes, garlic and herbs to the dish and drizzle with the oil.
  5. Baste before covering with tinfoil and returning to the oven.
  6. Bake for 45 minutes, basting every 15 minutes. Remove the foil and allow the potatoes to brown for a further 5 minutes.
  7. Sprinkle some fresh parsley and thyme on top before serving!
