How about potatoes roasted in olive oil, garlic and rosemary.
Cut them small and they'll be cooked in 30 mins de do-do-do, de dar-dar-dar

Little baby new potatoes would go nicely...:D
Or if you have "large potatoes" to use up, I would try mashing them (I think that its "mashed potato" weather here in London today - they're comfort food when its wet and miserable!!;)).

Hi Lynzpower
As you have the over on anyway, why not potato wedges? Don't peel them, just slice them lengthwise into about 8 wedges. Put some oil in a roasting tin and let it get hot, then put in the wedges, shake em about a bit and grind over some pepper and maybe a bit of salt. If you use it, that Marigold Swiss Bouillon powder is a good salt substitute. They usually take 20-30 mins depending on oven temp and wedge size.:j Every day in every way, learning to money save:j0 -
do you think that mash will "go" though, I ruled it out as a bit wrong as the sauce is made with creme fraiche and might be a bit claggy???:beer: Well aint funny how its the little things in life that mean the most? Not where you live, the car you drive or the price tag on your clothes.

I reckon potato wedges would be the best- yum! :drool:I don't know half of you half as well as I should like, and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve.

If you don't fancy the wedges, garlic mash could be good. Or herby mash.:j Every day in every way, learning to money save:j0
