Jamie Oliver has shared a few simple steps that will help you prepare the ' perfect roast potato ' that stays soft and fluffy inside but crisp outside.
The celebrity chef recently took to TikTok to share a recipe for '11/10' roast potatoes, writes the Mirror. According to Jamie there's a little-known step many of us forget.
The chef recommends parboiling your peeled spuds in salted, boiling water. Then cook them for about ten minutes before pouring the potatoes into a colander.
And next, Jamie recommends adding a tablespoon of oil and a swig of red wine vinegar before shaking your colander.
"Look what I'm doing. See how I've beaten that up?" the chef explains.
He continues: "So I'm gonna cook these in an oven at about 180/190, which is about 350 Fahrenheit, over the period of about 50 minutes."
But don't hang your oven gloves up once you've followed these instructions, as there's another important step.
After 40 minutes, you should take the tray out of the oven and 'pop' the potatoes with a masher.
"Place the potato masher on top, and then just let it pop and let the lovely starchy inside just puff out. Just do that around the whole tray and then pop it back in for another 10 minutes," he recommends. "Crispy and fluffy."
The recipe clearly went down a treat with fans, with the clip receiving more than 480,000 views and 18,000 likes.
"Yummmm! You have the best potatoes Jamie Oliver!" read one reply.
Someone else said "I wanna scran that." while another praised: "Ahhhhh loving them"
Meanwhile, a different commenter revealed: "I always do my potatoes like this, and they're always incredible."
