Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).

Peel and chop the potatoes into even-sized chunks.

Place the potatoes in a pot of cold salted water and bring to a boil.

Parboil the potatoes for about 10 minutes until slightly tender.

Drain the potatoes and let them steam dry for a few minutes.

In a large roasting pan, add duck fat and heat in the oven until shimmering.

Carefully add the parboiled potatoes to the hot duck fat, ensuring they are coated.

Sprinkle with salt, black pepper, and onion powder, then toss to combine.

Roast the potatoes for 30-40 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crispy.

In the last 10 minutes, add crushed garlic cloves and fresh rosemary to the pan.

Once done, remove from the oven and zest with lemon before serving.
