Cooking Time
23 minutes
Prep Time10 minutes
Servings4 portions
- 500 g (1lb 2 oz) baby potatoes, scrubbed and cut in half
- 25 g (1oz) Flora Buttery, melted
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- zest of 1 Large lemon, finely grated
- 2 tbsp fresh chives, parsley, basil or green onions, finely chopped
- Preheat oven to 220°C, 200°C fan, gas mark 7. Place potatoes in a medium saucepan. Add cold water, cover and bring to the boil.
- Reduce heat and simmer until slightly fork-tender, about 3 minutes. Potatoes should still be quite hard, or they will go mushy when you roast them.
- Meanwhile, in a small bowl whisk Flora Buttery with lemon juice. As soon as potatoes are cooked, drain them well. Turn potatoes into a baking dish just large enough to hold them.
- Toss with lemon juice mixture and bake in preheated oven, turning them occasionally until golden and cooked through, about 20 minutes.
- Sprinkle with lemon zest, herbs or green onions and season with a little salt and pepper to taste.
