Sage and Onion Roast Potatoes

These Sage and Onion Roast Potatoes are a delicious twist on an old classic, and a great addition to any winter meal.

• 4 teaspoons of dried sage or 8 teaspoons of freshly chopped sage
• 4 tablespoons of sunflower oil
• 1 finely chopped onion
• 4 tablespoons of medium oatmeal
• Potatoes, peeled and cut to desired size (this coating is enough for about 4 or 5 lbs/2 or 3 kilos.)
• salt to taste

Par boil the potatoes then just when they are beginning to soften remove from heat and drain. Place in baking tray and rub the coating all over them (careful!) – roast in a hot oven until nice and crispy (30 minutes plus). You might want to baste with a little more oil half way through for extra crispiness!

Variation:
Sesame roast potatoes – coat the potatoes in sunflower oil and plenty sesame seeds before roasting – this has a lovely flavour too.
