Method

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 210C/190C fan/410F/gas 6Β½. Drizzle 3 tbsp oil over the base of a roasting dish that will hold the potatoes in a single layer.

    Cut a thin slice off the bottom of each potato so that they sit flat. Finely slice them downwards to within about 1cm of the base (aim to cut halfway down to give you a little leeway).

    Slip a bay leaf into the middle of each potato and arrange them in the roasting dish. Drizzle over the remaining oil, season and dot with the butter.

    Roast for 1 hour until golden top and bottom, basting halfway through. If you like, sprinkle with a little extra salt when serving.
