These are known in our house as ‘Judy’ potatoes after the sister-in-law who introduced them into our lives. What a good turn she did us. Quantities here are impossible to give because it depends on the size of the potatoes. You will need the same amount as if you were serving roast potatoes.
If the potatoes are large, cut in half. If not, cut a slice off the side of the peeled potatoes so that they have a flat base. With a sharp knife make a series of cuts vertically down into the potato so that it resembles a crown. Make sure you don’t cut the potato right through.
Place the potatoes in a well-buttered baking dish, put a little dab of butter on each potato and then season.
