Recipe Marmite Roasties

[Yorky]

Ingredients

• 1.0 kgm Potatoes, scrubbed
• 60 gm Marmite yeast extract
• 2 tblsp Olive oil
• Salt

Method

Cut the potatoes into bite size pieces. Rinse off excess starch and bring to the boil in a pan of slightly salted water. Boil for around 10 minutes. Drain the potatoes in a colander and allow to dry for a few minutes. Warm the Marmite and drizzle it over the potatoes in the colander to obtain an even cross-hatched pattern. Mix well to get an even coating.


Pour the oil into the roasting tin and heat it in the oven set at 200 degC. Put the potatoes into the hot roasting tin and stir with a spoon to cover them in oil. Roast the potatoes in the oven for approximately 1 hour.


Serve hot.

now that looks good... shame it is too hot to be cooking them unless it is for breakfast!

Actually I cheated a bit. Although the recipe uses Marmite I used Bovril for the ones in the picture because that was all that I had.

That is sacrilege!

They are good! There is another potato dish which is potatoes cooked in marmite stock (not roasted). I must try to remember the recipe. It is also good. Anything with Marmite is good!

These are some more (Bovril again).

I have a "recipe" for OXO roast spuds. Basically just place the cut and parboiled spuds in a baking tin in 15 mm OXO gravy and roast until the gravy has evaporated.

I've not tried it yet.
