Ingredients

  • 400 g new potatoes scrubbed clean and patted dry
  • 5 tsp vegan buttery spread
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 clove of garlic, pressed
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1⁄4 tsp salt
  • 1⁄4 tsp Cayenne pepper
  • 1⁄4 tsp dried dill
  • 1 tsp dried chilli flakes

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 180°C, Gas Mark 6. 
  • Wash potatoes (do not peel). Using a sharp knife, carefully make small vertical slits, three quarters of the way down each potato, all the way along. 
  • Put the potatoes in a roasting tray. In a bowl, mix together the melted vegan buttery spread, oil, chilli flakes, paprika, dill, garlic, salt and pepper and brush over each potato with a pastry brush. Place in the oven and roast for around 40 minutes, or until golden and crispy around the edges, brushing them again halfway through cooking.
