No.71 Baked Baby Potatoes

This is the first of a few potato recipes that always come in handy. This recipe is one of the favourites. Its a simple toss everything in the oven job. Equally it is well suited to mid week dinners and dinner parties.

I made these for my grandparents along with a roasted side of salmon and all they could talk about was how much they enjoyed these potatoes.
