How to roast 'these' spuds ??

[Dave7]

Yesterday I steam cooked a load of Jersey potatoes.
MrsD fancies some roasted (with fried eggs, peas on.
My worry is that they are now fully cooked.
I just want them brown/crispy but don't want them turning to mush.
So.......
Will roasting work ?
If so, how?
I am guessing high heat/short time.
Anyone know if this will work?

Season and Fry them
(fried new pots are my fave )

 

[Domus]

Yep, slice them then sauté in olive oil and butter.
What time should I arrive?

 

[Dave7]

Frying would be my choice by SWMBO wants roasties.

My old granny always said new potatoes don't roast well though never said why and being small I never asked.

I like Jersey Royals slightly underdone so they have a bit of a bite still, with lots of butter melted on them...

then roast them up and when they go to mush, you can say " told you so".........

sacrilege to roast or fry jersey royals, although a light saute in the frying pan would be least worst.

 

[Domus]

I only sauté leftovers, Jerseys are cooked in salted water and served piping hot with salted butter.
Leftover Jerseys (usually not many) are then sautéd with oil and butter as a side dish for lunch the next day.

Feeling hungry now

That's good news, I didn't even know if you had an air fryer.

Yep.....got one of those Tefal Actifry but until you mention it, it didn't cross my mind.

I do roasties in ours all the time. Between that and the pressure cooker I can cook an entire Sunday roast without going anywhere near the oven.
