Warm Potato Salad with Summer Herbs

Simple but delicious, this recipe is deliberately heavy-handed with soft summer herbs; fresh, green and flavourful, they combine beautifully with the season’s best Cornish new potatoes and a light vinaigrette dressing. Serves 4 as a side.

Hasselback Potatoes

This Scandinavian twist on the roast potato looks impressive, but is actually very easy to do. Serves 4 as a side dish.

Crabby Jackets Recipe

Add a little luxury to your jacket potato with our lovely, locally-caught crab. Serves 4.

Spiced Sweet Potato Mash

Warming, fragrant and vibrantly coloured, this delicious mashed sweet potato recipe is a satisfying alternative (or addition) to the usual roasties. You can make it in advance up to the point where it’s ready to bake, then all you need to do is pop the dish in the oven when your guests arrive. Serves 8.

Sausage and Potato Barbecue Skewers Recipe

This simple recipe is put together and partially cooked before it reaches the barbecue, so you won’t have to wait long for the skewers to be ready (if the weather is looking grim you can always cook the skewers indoors, under the grill). Serves 4-6.

Rosemary & Polenta Roasties

We’ll never tire of roast potatoes (or of finding new ways to enjoy them!). This recipe uses polenta for extra crunch and rosemary for flavour – though you can use any woody herbs you like, including thyme or sage. Serves 4 as a side dish.

Rarebit Baked Potato Recipe

This Welsh-Rarebit inspired topping will make a rich, savoury meal out of your baked potatoes. If you are making them for vegetarians, check your cheddar cheese and Worcestershire sauce are vegetarian-friendly. Serves 4.

Pear & Potato Tart with Montagnolo Affine

This fabulously flavourful tart has a rich pear and blue cheese filling encased in a walnut pastry shell. Serves 6.

Fresh Mackerel and New Potato Salad Recipe

Eating seasonally doesn’t mean limiting your diet to a few dull recipes, as this delicious dish attests. Mackerel and new potatoes are plentiful in the UK in spring; they work beautifully together in this light but satisfying salad. Serves 2.

Caper-Dressed Sole with Potato Salad

This quick and simple recipe makes the most of delicately-flavoured Lemon Sole or Dover Sole, both unfairly underrated flat fish. You can make the salad well in advance if you like, though it is lovely when the potatoes are still a little warm – and fresh salad leaves are a must. Serves 2.

New Potato Skewers

The simplest recipes are often the nicest. Serve with good quality mayo, or make a quick, tasty dip by snipping a handful of fresh chives into some soured cream. You can also use these potatoes in our Sirloin Steak Salad with New Potatoes recipe, for extra BBQ flavour.
