[mattix771]

shocking to you health lol

[MMmumbojumbo]

I went to a professional cooking school in France, and they say this is not the way at all to roast potato-es...

[KillerLolicons]

honest question: doesn't it defeat the object of oven roasting if you're going to cook it under that much goose fat? i mean would it not be the same to heat the fat in a fryer?

Hi there @KillerLolicons, Antony finds that roasting the potatoes in goose fat gives his roast potatoes the best flavour and crispiest texture. It's an indulgent recipe that we would recommend saving for special occasions, maybe not for eating regularly!

look at antony, is he the picture of health?

no

i wouldnt trust ihs fukkin dietary advice the beardy weirdy hanst got a fukkin clue what eating is about!

@lukkbox erm,,,anybody who thinks "deep fried" potatoes would even resemble a good roastie strikes me as the "plonker" ,try 'em mate, unless your pallette is completely impotent you should notice the difference.
