1

Preheat the oven to 180°C, gas mark 4. Place a large tray in the oven to preheat.

2

Halve or quarter the potatoes, keeping them all roughly the same size.

3

Parboil them in a pot of water seasoned with 2 tsp of sea salt for approx. 10 minutes.

4

Drain the potatoes and set aside to cool in the colander. Once cool, give the potatoes a shake in the colander to roughen up the edges (this makes them super crispy).

5

Place the duck or goose fat in the preheated tray and leave to melt. Once melted, add the potatoes to the tray in an even layer.

6

Halve the head of garlic and add to the tray with the potatoes. Roast in the oven for approx. 1 hour, or until golden and crisp, turning the potatoes now and then to ensure even browning.

7

Remove the tray from the oven and using a large spoon or the base of a glass, gently press down on the potatoes.

8

Toss the sage leaves in the olive oil and add them to the tray. Place the tray in the oven for a further 20-25 minutes.

9

Serve immediately.
