M&S new ' terribly clever ' roast potato seasoning / coating as seen on the ad - FREE

bella134bella134

Went to my local M&S food store today (Fforestfach, Swansea) and picked up the roast potato coating (as seen on the ad). When it was scanned through (should have been 99p) it came up with a 99p discount! When the cashier queried it the supervisor said that they should have been taken off the shelves yesterday. She then told the cashier to let it go through! I'm sorry I didn't get the receipt. Apologies if it is store specific or no longer valid.

    No doubt we will be brainwashed into thinking if we don't use this then our roasties won't be crisp.

    Never had trouble with mine,par boil,shake and roast in hot beef dripping.(or goose fat if you prefer)

    +1, I just use Crisp 'N' Dry oil, make sure they've cooled completely otherwise they steam and bash 'em a bit to get the rough edges ...

    That's a great tip - I probably don't let them cool enough and sometimes end up with soggy potatoes. Thanks!

    Right Im off down to the local M&S, need a few bits anyway will see if I can sneak this one through, if it comes up as 99p I'll change my mind and ask them to put it back.

    Sprinkle semolina on ours before putting in oven - works a treat everytime.

    My mother swears by adding a little marmite to the spuds, my hubby hates marmite but loves those roasties!

    Fishmaster - it scanned at 99 but then the discount came off at the end. Hope you do get it for free!

    As someone who doesn't like to add meat product i.e. beef drippings, goose fat etc to veg food, I would go down the Crisp n Dry route myself- a top tip!

    Dont use Crisp n Dry

    Use Shake n Vac

    It will bring the freshness back!

    Its a good job it was free. Absolute rubbish as far as I'm concerned. The packaging is a disgrace. Small packet in a largish cardboard outer. Not in the same street as Lidl's Pustza (all spice) for roasties. For those of you who havn't bought it, save your money.

    olive oil does fine. Its the par boiling and getting some sort of fat into the outer layer and roughened that does the job.
