Cut with lots of edges and angles as these are the bits that go really crispy
Par-boil in slaled water
Drain and shake gently to fluff up, creating a larger surface area for the fat
Melt some duck/goose fat in a metal tray until very hot, add potatoes and turn so they are covered in nommy fat
Place in the top of a hot oven for at least an hour
Add crushed garlic cloves half way through

If you sprinkle them with semolina once you've rolled them in the fat
they get an extra crispy coat.

Also nice with some saffron sprinkled on the potatoes just after they've been fluffed up.

My mum does this, and it is nice

And where might I be able to buy this 'slaled water'?

( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Mon 5 Sep 2011, 13:25, Reply)

I can sell you two varieties
one of them is water with slate in it, and the other one is just water, but as I pass it to you I'll tell you it is shit.
