Roast potatoes with Stilton and chestnut gremolata

5.00

This festive side dish is perfect when you fancy a change from regular roast potatoes - or perhaps you fancy both! The potatoes are crushed before roasting, meaning there are plenty of crispy edges, and topped with melted Stilton. The finishing touch comes in the form of a seasonal chestnut gremolata.
