Easy Roasted Potatoes and Sausages.

This meal is as easy as 1, 2, 3... though there are some secrets. 
To have the crunchy and attractive potatoes boil them for about 5 minutes, it will remove the excess of starch from the potato cubes and seal the potato surface. The potatoes will come out with a  crunchy crust and they will be really soft and tender inside. Don't use ready potato herbs mixes: the only herbs you need are rosemary and a bay leaf... Serve the dish with a very simple salad, don't overdo with the dressing as well, just some good olive oil.... Try it to believe it!!!
