Instructions: Here's how to cook 500g of McCain Roasts. If cooking a different amount, adjust the cooking time accordingly.

Preheat the oven to 220°C/Fan 210°C/Gas Mark 7.
For best results use a deep edged baking tray with no holes to prevent any of the basting fats from leaking into the oven and preheat the tray for 5 minutes.

Rubbish. They are far too SMALL!

1 stars

They have become so small they are absolutely TERRIBLE. Go back to the original sizes please, then I'll buy them again!

Crisps anyone?

3 stars

I buy these roast potatoes for convenience as I end up throwing away fresh potatoes that have sprouted before I can use them. These used to be excellent and were bought because they didn't have a batter coating which I dislike. However since the product has been changed, 'supposedly for the best', They are so small that some pieces are more like crisps. One pack had one really large piece and the rest very small. I had to wait until they were partially cooked and then cut the large one into 4 so that it would be cooked when the others were done. Why have they made them so small now???

Disappointing Since Receipe Has Been Changed

3 stars

McCain roast potatoes use to be by far the best however they have changed the recipe and are now much drier and nowhere near as nice. Disappointing.

Changed the packaging and recipe

2 stars

Always loved these potatoes but it seems they may have changed the recipe aswell as the packaging and added corn oil of which I am allergic too (found out the hard way!)

Awful quality lots of tiny pieces very few large e

1 stars

Awful quality lots of tiny pieces very few large enough to call a roast potato

Waste of time

1 stars

Totally useless - all small pieces - I had two "normal" sized roasties in the pack the rest were slivers or tiny chunks. An expensive mistake which I will not be making again. These used to be great but have done downhill.

Tiny roast potatoes

1 stars

There were only 3 reasonable sized roasts, the rest looked like they were very small odd bits of potatoes. I will not be buying these again.

Received tiny potatoes for home delivery

2 stars

Bought 2 bags to get enough for 3 people, and got enough smallish potatoes. One bag had only tiny potatoes, many less than 1 inch. Would not have picked this bag in store and will certainly not risk buying them for home delivery

Not suitable for vegetarians. To be fair it is st

1 stars

Not suitable for vegetarians. To be fair it is stated on the description and it's my fault for not checking but very disappointed that these are smothered in animal fat. Did consider washing them but decided to give them away instead.

I have not come across a better roasted potato. Ea

5 stars

I have not come across a better roasted potato. Easy to cook, they are golden brown and have a crunchy outer coating with a soft potato middle. The roasts are smaller than if you would cook them at home, but this wasn't a problem for me.
