This classic vegetarian side dish elevates the humble roast potato to new heights of golden crunch. By using the simple technique of scoring the surface with a fork, you create a larger surface area that catches the hot olive oil, resulting in a glass-like crispness and deep savoury flavour. These forked oven-roasted potatoes are the ultimate accompaniment to any celebratory meal or a traditional Sunday lunch with all the trimmings.
Using smaller Yukon Gold or similar waxy potatoes ensures a buttery, soft interior that contrasts perfectly with the rugged, textured exterior. This method is incredibly reliable for achieving that sought-after crunch without the need for complicated flours or coatings. Simply serve them piping hot from the oven with an extra sprinkle of sea salt for a crowd-pleasing addition to your table.

1 tablespoon kosher salt plus more
120ml olive oil
How to make Forked Oven-Roasted Potatoes
Back to contentsPreheat oven to 218°C. Working in 2 batches, cook potatoes in a large pot of boiling salted water for 3 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer potatoes to a rimmed baking sheet. When cool enough to handle, firmly scrape the tines of a fork up and down potatoes, creating a rough, grooved surface.
Pour oil onto another rimmed baking sheet; bake (to heat oil) for 5 minutes. Add potatoes; turn to coat. Season with 1 tablespoon salt. Roast, turning 3 times during cooking and occasionally basting with oil, until browned and tender, 60-70 minutes.
