This simple potato salad is a great side when entertaining, or a perfect way to use up Christmas leftovers.

900g Desiree or King Edward potatoes, peeled, cut into 2cm pieces
30g unsalted butter
500g duck fat or goose fat, or lard
Sliced ham, to serve
Mustards and condiments (such as mustard fruits and preserved quince), to serve

Method

1.

Place potatoes in a saucepan of cold salted water, bring to boil, then cook for 2 minutes. Drain, return to pan and shake vigorously (this roughens the potatoes and help them to crisp).
2.

Heat butter and fat or lard in a large frypan over medium heat. When hot, add potatoes and cook (in batches if necessary) for 2-3 minutes each side until crisp and golden, turning to ensure even cooking. Drain on paper towel, sprinkle with sea salt and serve with ham and condiments.
