1. 1Pre-heat the oven to 220ºC/200ºC fan
2. 2Put the olive oil (2 tbsp) into a roasting tin and put it into the oven to heat up.
3. 3Chop the potatoes into cubes about 2cm wide.
4. 4Strip the rosemary leaves from their stalks and finely chop them. Strip the thyme leaves from their stalks.
5. 5Once the oil has heated in the roasting pan, remove it from the oven.
