A good Christmas lunch needs the best roast potatoes. Here is a tried and tested recipe from the Wyatts Butchers team. We also sell the Goose Fat!

•  1kg floury potatoes, such as Maris Piper (serves four)
• Goose fat from Wyatts Butchers

Method

• Preheat the oven to 220C / 425F / Gas 7.
• Peel the potatoes and cut into large chunks.
• Parboil in boiling salted water for five minutes. Drain and toss in the pan to roughen the edges.
• Put a generous amount of goose fat in a roasting tin and put in the oven, until smoking.
• Carefully take the tin out of the oven and add the potatoes to the hot fat, basting them as you do so.
• Place the tin back in the oven and cook for about one hour until the roast potatoes are golden and crunchy.
• Turn them over from time to time to make sure they colour on all sides.
