How To Make betty's greek style baked potatoes

  • 1
    Pre-heat your oven to 400oF/200oC and grab a big baking tray.
  • 2
    Chop your potatoes evenly (so they all cook at the same rate). If they are big, slice in half length ways, then slcie down the middle of the half - length ways again and now chop into inch (2.5 cm) peices.

    Grab a cotton tea towel and in batches, dry the potatoes and place into the baking tray. (drying and removing the starchy liquid makes your potatoes extra crunchy).

    Pour the oil over the top and use your hands to toss to evenly coat. Sprinkle with the rosemary all over the now oil coated potatoes.
