Cheap tinned peeled potatoes experiment to make roast potatoes. Home cooking.
Well how we doing out there I hope you're all spot on thanks for watching the video.
I'm going to do so a little bit different now. I've been on the social media and I've seen a recipe
well sort of not so much a recipe a sort of cooking method for roast potatoes and I'm going
to try and replicate it myself. So I have been shopping I've been to Aldi and I bought these
33 pence everyday essentials peeled potatoes in water. It's not my idea this it's been out for
quite some time but I thought I'd just give it a whirl and see see if it works. It's gonna work
anyway never mind see if it works it will work. I'd like to say as well thank you very much Susie
for the package wow look at that it's got all sorts of goodies in crisps sweets for the kids
gravy granules and salt and pepper fantastic and I'll be using it in a minute when I have a
season these spuds so thank you very much Susie for that I really do appreciate it very very kind
Anyway I'm going to get these open now so let's open them let's get these open
all they are everyday essentials peeled potatoes 33 pence we these remind me of when I was in the
forces these I hope you can see okay there let's have a look just double check you can see you can't
let's get this open
and we will go from there but be very careful it's not got a ring pull on
I'm going to drain them I'll take you over to the draining area
do a bit of draining around here that's them I'll take the camera there rather
so they're just just like that really I'm going to give them a dry and then I'm going to get them
in the old air fryer just pour them on there I'm just trying to get all the excess water off them
really just don't want any moisture on them I think they might do a bit better if they're
sort of dry I know I'm going to season them put some oil on them some salt and pepper
and then I'm going to get them in they're only diddy aren't they only diddy ones
right I'm going to I'm going to get the old air frying bit out now
I think what what it's best doing is doing it in here because I don't want the oil to go
everywhere so I'll put the potatoes in get them in there and then I'll give them a season
you can just see in there I got that as well as Susie thank you very much
it's Himalayan pink salt wow the reason why it's pink and I know why it's pink
is because oh it's it's basically all they're all crust crushed up crustaceans and fossils
and that's why it's gone pink that's true that's a true it's a true one so we'll get the salt in
and we'll get some pepper in there as well where's the pepper I can't find the pepper this
is badly planned isn't it so I can't find the pepper I'm going to put some olive oil on there
now I'm going to drizzle that over them just like that a bit of olive oil so I've had salt and olive
oil no pepper I'll find that at the end I'm going to give them a sort of mix around they're all in
now we'll get this on we'll go on the air crisp 200 degrees and we'll do it for
because we only did the potatoes we'll go for 14 minutes for now and we'll see what that's like
you can only give it a whirl see what it's like could be a revelation
can't beat roast potatoes done in goose fat though can you I got a tub of that once when we were
there was a waitrose and we went there once for a treat and it was a treat as well
we bought a tub of goose fat and we basically put the whole tub in a large container and I put it
in the oven made some lovely roast potatoes wowsers they were so good they really were good
I was just in here before and I could hear them they were exploding
so I opened it up and a couple of them have like bust so it must be the water in it so
the only thing I can think of is there's water in the potatoes
and it's obviously it's boiled and it's blown them up
so we'll see anyway there's a couple of that bust but they're only diddy they're only small
potatoes anyway so one mouthful and they're gone can you hear it popping just popping away
well I'll end up with no no potatoes I have given a stir I have then shook it up
just got them out see what you think of them I just baste them with a bit of olive oil
and a bit of salt and I think they might need a little bit longer I'll be honest
yeah I think they probably do a little bit they're a little bit pasty they're only diddy
potatoes I think I think maybe next time well you might like diddy potatoes
get try and get the ones in the can which are bigger but we will we will try them see what
that's them there well we'll try them anyway let's not yeah not great I'll be honest
need a lot of seasoning just not crisped up enough really
lacking in flavor as well I'll get the salt out I really think with something like this you
maybe give them a good seasoning you can get sort of um seasons seasonings can't you
that are available that you could sort of put on them they do need it I definitely need a
seasoning that's not focusing is it definitely need a seasoning yeah it's the potato itself
it's not particularly they're not hot they're not particularly tasty potatoes I'll be honest
and they're not probably probably not designed for this to be fair I mean they're designed to be
just done in seven or eight minutes in hot boiling water or par boiling water
yeah do not boil gently heat it says so we'll give it a whirl we give it a try but I think you
know stick to get your pills peel your own spuds and um you know do it yourself in the oven I love
when you peel them and you get flat bottoms and they're just sitting in the fat and they're
bubbling away and all the bottom of the potato goes nice and crispy like hard but lovely and
crispy and and it contains the fat that's so good and these are not them but we give it a whirl we
give it a try maybe like I say if you get bigger potatoes and baste them with some sort of like
goose fat or something like that and garlic seasoning or something like that just to sort
of give them a bit of a head start because they're struggling aren't they I'll be honest as they are
but we tried we give it a whirl I'm gonna maybe get some mayonnaise out now and just
um yeah never mind we give it a go that's what it's all about isn't it
might need doing longer but then there'll be nothing left of them if I do longer
so thanks for watching a little cooking experiment maybe never went as planned but
there you go that's life thanks for watching do appreciate it thanks for joining and please like
