sear roasting

Baking!

Wow! Almost any of the above could be mine, but to settle on one for the sake of the contest, here's my current favourite:
For roast potatoes, to be roasted in the pan with a chicken.
Peel the potatoes and slice into pieces somewhat larger than a single bite.
Boil 6-8 minutes; drain; shake the pot to 'scrunch up' the edges.
Place alongside a roasting chicken until done, in oil or goose fat if you have it; top with a little drizzle of oil and some rock salt.

So, the technique is the boil-scrunch-roast technique of what I call 'melting roast potatoes'.

Roasting -- it just seems to bring out the best in everything. =) Unless baking counts as a technique as well? Because that's also up there ...
