Crunchy Potatoes with Thyme

We love the crunchy texture of these potatoes. You only need to break the skin of the potatoes with a fork, not mash them fully. You can also use the palm of your hand to press down gently and crack them open slightly. This gives a lovely scrunched surface that crisps up wonderfully and absorbs the herb flavour.

Ingredients

1.5–2kg baby potatoes, scrubbed

2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil

2 tsp fresh thyme leaves, or 1 tsp dried

1 tsp flaky sea salt

Method

Preheat oven to 200˚C/400F.

Boil the potatoes for 10 minutes in lightly salted water.

Drain well and transfer to a roasting dish.

Use a fork to break the skins and slightly flatten the potatoes.

Drizzle with oil, sprinkle with thyme and flaky salt and roast until crispy and golden — about 40 minutes. Serve hot.
