King Charles shared his special trick for the ultimate roast potatoes
King Charles just shared a very clever hack for getting ‘perfect’ roast potatoes, just in time for Christmas too!
- During a special visit to the Morrison’s HQ in Yorkshire, King Charles III met with staff members leading a sustainability initiative and the apprenticeship programmes.
- The monarch delighted employees with a festive message and even shares a surprise cooking hack.
- This royal news comes after Kate Middleton's emotional corgi tribute to Queen on Christmas carol concert invitations was revealed.
During a special visit to Morrison’s HQ in Bradford, King Charles surprised staff with an unexpected but ingenious cooking tip.
The 76-year-old revealed his trick for getting the ‘perfect’ roast potatoes and it’s a clever take on a classic roasting method that could be a game-changer for Christmas Day!
After being shown an ‘irresistible’ looking beef joint, Charles advised that instead of covering your accompanying roasties in oil before popping them in the oven, to instead use the fat from whatever meat you’re cooking - whether it’s duck fat or beef.
Royal editor for the Daily Mail, Rebecca English shared the clever hack on Twitter writing, “At the Bradford HQ of @Morrisons The King offered his tip for the perfect roast potato (cook them in fat from the joint!) as he smelt an 'irresistible' rib of beef.”
