Method
- Preheat the oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C. Put the potatoes in a lidded pan of cold water. Bring to the boil, then cook for 5 mins until just tender. Drain well. Return to the pan, cover and shake to roughen up the edges.
- Spoon the goose fat into a large roasting tin and heat in the oven for 4 mins until smoking. Quickly and carefully tip the potatoes into the tin and toss in the fat. Add the garlic.
- Roast for 40 mins, turning once for even crispiness. Turn again, add the rosemary and a sprinkle of sea salt; cook for 15 mins until golden and crisp. Serve in a warmed bowl.
Get ahead: Parboil the potatoes up to 1 month in advance. Drain, fluff up the edges and leave to cool completely in a roasting tin. Open-freeze on baking paper. On the day, carefully tip the frozen potatoes into hot oil; roast for 1hr -1hr 15 mins.
