Frequently asked questions

Which potato variety for which dish?

Floury potatoes are best for mash and soups, waxy ones hold their shape so they suit salads and roasting, and all-rounders can be used for everything.

How long do potatoes take to boil?

Whole small potatoes take about 20 minutes, sliced ones 10 to 15 minutes. Check with a fork — it should go in easily, but the potato should not fall apart.

How do I make crispy roast potatoes?

Parboil the potatoes for 8 minutes, shake them in the colander to soften the edges, then roast at 200°C with olive oil for 30 to 40 minutes, turning them now and then.
