Potatoes

The Buyks family has been growing potatoes for Innisfail Growers since 1993. Originally from Holland, John and Corry bring years of vegetable growing experience to their family farm.

Farming has always been important to our family. Although our four children have now all graduated from university, our eldest son Hanno and his wife Megan are involved with the farm, and help to bring you all the fresh potatoes you know and love.

Every summer we spend hours and hours walking through our potato fields to ensure the plants are healthy. Our baby potatoes are all hand picked, selected and sorted to bring gourmet quality and freshness to your plate. The rich black soil we have on our farm helps us grow the excellent quality potatoes you will find in every bag.

Our family’s favorite recipe:

Cooking Potatoes

Baby roasted potatoes

2 lb baby potatoes (red or yellow)
3 tablespoons melted butter
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons bread crumbs or cornflake crumbs
2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese

Cut baby potatoes in quarters and put in a greased baking dish.
Baste with some melted butter and sprinkle with salt.
Cook about 25 minutes in preheated 350F oven.
Sprinkle crumbs and cheese overtop, baste with remaining butter.
Roast another 10 minutes until potatoes are done.

If potatoes are not cut, cooking time will be longer.

Serves 4.
