Moroccan Spiced Roast Potatoes
These potatoes are my favourite kind- crispy, flavourful and delicious! The spice paste here is my moroccan spice paste with added olive oil but i've copied it out here in full to make the recipe easier to use. Cooking time includes time for the spices to blend. Thanks to a review, here is a suggestion if using a convection oven- cook for 40 minutes total, the first 15 mins at 350f and thereafter turn it up to 400f.
Steps
Mince / crush the garlic and set aside in a bowl.
Add the other spice paste ingredients and mix.
Cover and leave for at least an hour before using , for the flavours to blend.
After 30 minutes , preheat the oven to 300f or 150c.
Peel and quarter the potatoes.
Simmer them in a pan of boiling water for 5-6 minutes.
Drain the potatoes and gently shake them in the pan to roughen the edges.
Put the potatoes in a roasting tray.
Add the spice paste and toss to coat the potatoes completely.
Bake for 30 minutes , or until done , turning halfway through cooking.
Serve hot and enjoy !.
