Jersey royal recipes
Discover new ways to use these fabulous seasonal new potatoes with our very best jersey royal recipes. Jersey royal potatoes are a highlight of spring – they have a nutty, earthy flavour with firm flesh and flaky skin. They’re grown exclusively in Jersey, the largest of the Channel Islands, and available from the end of March to July. The peak of the season is in May, so make the most of them when you can!
Some of our favourite jersey royal recipes include satisfying salads and sides, such as sherry-braised jersey royals with broad beans and serrano ham. But there’s so much more you can do with them too… Try mashed into this salt and vinegar jersey royal foccacia, transformed into chips – or paired with cheese in our jersey royal and fontina frittata and jersey royal tartiflette.
