View Full Version : Garlic & Rosemary Potatoes
Garlic & Rosemary Potatoes :eatin::chef::chef::D:D
This is simple, but nice
Boil up some of those small potatoes in their skins until cooked, strain
You can then either
(1) place in some potatoes in foil and splash with olive oil, garlic and rosemary, wrap up the pots in the foil, repeat until all the potatoes are used and place on the coals of a barbeque, for 15 – 20 mins turning once. Open foil packages tip into a dish and serve with your barbeque, they may come out black, but they are lovely.
(2) place all the potatoes in a dish bung in the over with the olive oil, rosemary and garlic and cook until crispy.
We are still having these and they are nice, be sure to be generous with the rosemary and garlic.

sounds yummy.
have you tried the
pink fir apple potatoes.
Children will love these as their unusual shapes become a talking point my child says they are monster potatoes and really enjoy them. can be grown in your own garden. or in a nice sized pot.
They sound lovely Isis :)
I have just started my diet again [I lost 2 stone end of last year, now need to lose another couple] - I don't suppose you have any healthy soup recipes do you? :huh::D
I do have a receipe for soup, but healthy no, the dietician atually told me that I am not allowed to have soup!!!! What about weight watchers, they do a packet soup, which I have got But have you tried the Tesco Finest rustique seedy rolls, you bake them yourself and dietician said they were lovely, and they are really yummy, in fact she said that any bread with seed in it is good for you.

[quote=mysty;264464]sounds yummy.
have you tried the
red fir apple potatoes.
Mysty
never heard of them!!:huh: where do you get them from???
hi lsis.
the pink fir apple potatoes can be bought from good garden centres. our local pet food store also sells them. as l have access to a friends allotment. have grown them there in organic soil. the taste is really something the skins are pinky/ red and the inside cream in colour. they take little time to boil they are long knobbly tubular shapes the children liken them to monster wiggly worm shapes.
on the rare occasion l have managed to purchase them from a local fruit shop but they are very expensive over a £1. per pound in weight. however, buying the tubours they were 30 pence a pound last year and l had a very good crop. they can be grown in large pots in the garden. and well worth the effort. :) sorry got the colour of the potatoes mixed they are' pink fir apples' not red. my mistake.:rolleyes:
Thanks for the info mysty they sound like they are worth trying :)

:) hi er 59. they really are. once you have tried this variety of potatoe the others seem bland. unfortunately, l have yet to learn how to paste and send otherwise l would send you some info. however, type in pink fir apple and google will do the rest. l am still a novice on the p.c. :rolleyes:
:lol: Ive just looked them up and it says that they are a cross between anya and desiree potatoes ive tried the anya potatoes before and liked them so will definatley try the pink fur apples ;)
Sorry Isis we have hi jacked your thread im just curious to try anything new food wise ;)
SP, a great lazy diet food is,
put swede, onions, carrots, pearl barley, lentils, leek, baby onions in a casserole dish and cover with cold water.
Cook for 1 1/2 to 2 hours on gas mark 5. Then add 2 tins of beans and stir in some chicken/onion gravy granules. Cook for a futher 15 mins.
Its lovely. If you want you can add some potato cubes to thicken it up.
Please don't worry ever worry about hi jacking my thread these things happen its like a conversation you move from one subject to another. will tell my neighbour about these pots perhaps she will have a go and growing them in her allotment. I am not going to grow them myself, because my neighbour has an allotment and last year i think we could have set up our tomato stall :tomato:as i grew them and so did she, i think we could have bathed:lush: in them we had so many. So its down to her this year.
