11/27/2003 Archived Entry: "Thanksgiving Recipe #6 - Roast potatoes"

My grandma makes these better than anyone else in the world - I'm not sure what her trick is exactly, but this is her recipe and it'll still taste amazing even if you don't have her magic cooking hands

Ingredients

• White roasting potatoes (2 small ones per person or one large one) - cut into quarters or halves if they're too small
• White flour

Directions

1. Par boil the potatoes for about 5 minutes - they should just be getting a bit soft
2. Drain them and let them cool for a bit
3. Flour them lightly
4. Put them around the turkey and baste with the turkey
   
   - OR -
   
   Put them in their own roasting container in the same oven as the turkey (make sure your oven is big enough for both) and baste them a little every time you baste the turkey.
5. The potatoes should be in the oven for the last 45 minutes to 1 hour that the turkey's in.
6. Serve
