If they're like glorified home-fries you're doing them wrong!

They need to be par-boiled than drained and tossed to make them fluffy, keep them on a low heat in a pan to dry off the excess moisture from boiling while tossing some more, THEN stick them in some hot oil in an oven tray (preferably leftover oil/juices from the meat you're cooking them with to make them extra scrummy) and add seasoning.

Omnomnom.

Apparently goose fat is the thing to use to make them really crispy, but that's just pricey and doesn't make a huge difference IMO.

Maybe we should have some kind of eoff potato-based cook-off?
