Special Spuds Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Place the potatoes, minced onion, parsley, garlic powder, seasoned salt, pepper, and olive oil in a large bowl; toss together until potatoes are evenly coated. Spread potatoes in an even layer on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil.
• Bake for 20 minutes in the preheated oven; flip the potatoes and continue to bake until tender, 20 to 25 minutes.

Steps:

• Bake potato puffs according to package directions. In a large bowl, whisk eggs, milk, salt and pepper. Stir in ham., In a large nonstick skillet, heat butter over medium heat. Add egg mixture; cook and stir until eggs are thickened and no liquid egg remains. Serve with potato puffs; sprinkle with cheese and green onions.

Steps:

• Take 2 pieces of tin foil and lightly spray the tinfoil with buttter flavored cooking spray where the potato will be. Sprinkle that area with a little seasoning salt and pepper. Split the potato in half. Sprinkle both halves with the seasonings. Place one slice onion on the potato and top with the 1 tablespoon butter. Place other half of potato onion. Wrap the bacon around the potato in a criss cross fashion. Holding potato tightly together, roll up in tin foil. Repeat with other potato.
• Bake approximately 60 minutes or until potatoes are tender and bacon is cooked.

Steps:

• Put the potatoes in a large pan, cover with cold water and add the bouillon powder or stock cubes, turmeric and bay leaves. Cover with a lid, bring to a boil and simmer for 10 mins until the potatoes start to soften on the outside but remain whole.
• Drain the potatoes well and give them a shake in the colander to rough up the edges, then leave to steam-dry in the colander for 5 mins. Meanwhile, pour the oil and duck or goose fat, if using, into your largest baking tray (the spuds will need plenty of space to really crisp up) and put in the oven underneath the turkey to heat for a few mins. Once the potatoes are dry, sprinkle with the flour and plenty of seasoning, then toss to coat. Can be frozen for up to 3 months - to cook from frozen, add an extra 20 mins to the cooking time.
• Remove the hot tray from the oven. Carefully tip in the potatoes and coat in the hot fat. Cook for 30 mins at 200C/180C fan/gas 6, on the lower shelf of the oven underneath the joint of meat, if making. When you take the joint or main meal out, turn the oven up to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Turn the potatoes over in the tray and continue cooking for 45 mins-1 hr longer on the top shelf, until golden and crispy.
