Rosemary Garlic Potatoes




The great majority of my favourite recipes are ones that can just be thrown together with little or no care for weight or measurement.  For the evening that's in it - post-work, wet and just a bit mucky - I needed something simple to see me through the 3rd place World Cup match tonight.   

Chop up as many potatoes as you are hungry - not too small that they will dry out in the oven but not too big that they take too long to crisp up.  Lace the chips in olive oil, chop a few cloves of garlic into the mix and lots of fresh rosemary.  Add a little salt and pepper too.  Throw it all onto a hot baking tray and leave them in the oven - 200 degrees or so.  Generally about 45 minutes will do it, and tossing them half way through helps the crispiness. (A little cheese - Parmigiano Reggiano or just a bit of Dubliner cheddar - grated on top is a nice addition).
