Ingredients:

8 medium-sized roasting potatoes
50g butter, melted
4 tbsp olive oil
1/2 tsp paprika

Method:

Bring a pan of lightly-salted water to a boil. Pare the potatoes then shape into flattened ovals. Add the potatoes to the pan of boiling water and cook for 5 minutes before draining.

Combine the butter and olive oil in a small cup. Scrape the potatoes with the tines of a fork to roughen the surface. Now use the oil and butter mixture to brush all over the potatoes then dust with the paprika. Arrange in a baking dish and place in an oven pre-heated to 200°C. Bake for 20 minutes and brush with more of the butter and oil mix.

Return to the oven and bake for 20 minutes more. Brush a final time with the oil and butter mix, return to the oven and bake for 15 minutes more. Serve hot. These make a classic accompaniment to any roast.
