Turmeric Roasties

Turmeric Roasties

in Recipes

These Turmeric Roasties are a vibrant and flavorful twist on the classic roasted potatoes, with the warm spice of turmeric adding a beautiful golden colour and earthy flavor. Perfect as a side dish to any meal!

Serves: 4
Time: 10 minutes prep, 75 minutes cooking

INGREDIENTS:

  • 800g potatoes, washed and skin on
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
  • Salt, to taste

INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F).
  2. Cut the washed potatoes into even-sized chunks or wedges, keeping the skin on for extra texture and nutrients.
  3. In a large bowl, toss the potato pieces with olive oil, ground turmeric, and a generous sprinkle of salt. Make sure the potatoes are evenly coated.
  4. Spread the seasoned potatoes out in a single layer on a lined baking tray.
  5. Roast in the oven for 30 minutes. You'll know they're ready for the next step when they just start to turn golden.
  6. Remove the potatoes from the oven and squish them gently to increase the surface area of the potato - this helps more parts of it become crispy. Toss in a little olive oil and salt.
  7. Return the potatoes to the oven and roast for 40-45 minutes. Remove from the oven when the whole potato is golden and the edges are crispy.
  8. Once the potatoes are golden and crispy, remove them from the oven. Serve hot as a delicious side dish, seasoned with extra salt if needed.

My Grandma was the one who taught me to make these delicious biscuits. They are simple, chocolatey and vastly popular. I have added a slight twist to these biscuits to boost the gut-loving fibre and enhance the chocolate flavour. Wholemeal flour and flakes instead of plain flour and cornflakes. Cacao powder instead of cocoa powder, and cinnamon to increase the chocolate flavour.
