Preheat oven to 200°C (180°C fan) mark 6. On the cut face of each potato, slice a cross hatch pattern no more than 5mm (¼in) deep. Arrange the potatoes cut-side up on a baking tray. Brush all over with the oil and sprinkle over 11/2tsp salt flakes and some freshly ground black pepper.
Cook in top of oven for 45min. Turn oven up to 220°C (200°C fan) mark 7 and cook for a further 15min, or until potatoes are golden and tender. Transfer to a warm dish and serve.
