She discussed how to elevate your roast potatoes. Saliha won BBC’s Masterchef in 2017. She told Express.co.uk: “You will be fighting for these over dinner.
Method
Preheat the oven to 200°C fan/220°C/gas mark 7. Place a large flat roasting tray inside to heat up.
Meanwhile, peel the potatoes and cut each one into quarters. Boil in salted water for around 4 minutes, then drain in a colander.
Shake the colander to rough up the edges of the potatoes and sprinkle over the semolina.
Pour the olive oil into the hot roasting tray and tip in the potatoes, ensuring that they are spaced apart from one another in a single layer.
