Cut them into 1-1 1/2 inch thick long wedges with the skin on, microwave them to slightly soften them up where they are still firm when stuck with a fork!.
Then coat them with corn oil, sprinkle garlic powder, salt, pepper, crushed or regular rosemary leaves and paprika and/or chili powder and roast them under the broiler without burning them!.
You'll need to keep watch on them because I'm not sure of the time required for toasting without burning them!.
Might want to melt some cheese over them for an extra kick in flavor!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

If they're POTATO potatoes (as in just potatoes in no design or type), then it might be best to bake them!. Who knows!? It might be nice to have a little specialty with the fish and pork!. Another choice I'd have is to make one of your own creations with them using spices and make them peeled (might have fun doing it)!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
I would probably make chips (fries) and serve with peas, ideally mushy!. Or maybe a gratin, slice parboiled pots, onion and mince garlic, layer up in dish with knobs of butter, milk and cheese, season well, bake on medium heat for aprox 30mins!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
I like to nuke mine in the microwave first for about 3 min!.
Then I cut them and cube them in bitsize pieces!. Fry them up in some olive oil on the stove, Add some onion, garlic, salt and pepper!. Cook until golden brown!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Salt and pepper
Preheat oven to 350°F!. Butter a large casserole dish with 1 1/2 Tbsp of butter!. If you use a casserole dish that is about 9x13 (bigger than the one shown) you'll have more surface area, more of the potatoes will brown, and the cooking time will be faster!.
Layer the bottom of the casserole dish with 1/3 of the potato slices!. Sprinkle with salt and pepper!. Layer on 1/2 of the sliced onions and 1/2 cup of the Swiss cheese!. Layer on 1/2 of the bacon, 1/2 of the parsley and chives!. Sprinkle with a little Parmesan!.
Repeat by layering on 1/3 of the potato slices, sprinkle again with salt and pepper!. Layer on the remaining sliced onions, 1/2 cup of the Swiss cheese, the remaining bacon, parsley and chives!. Sprinkle with a little Parmesan!.
Top the casserole with the remaining potato slices!. Add the half and half!. Dot the potatoes with the remaining 1 1/2 Tbsp of butter!.
Cover the casserole with aluminum foil and bake in the oven for one hour!. After an hour, remove from the oven, remove the foil, sprinkle on the remaining Swiss and Parmesan cheese!. Return to the oven for an additional 30-40 minutes!. When done, the potatoes should be tender, but not mushy, and the liquid should be mostly absorbed!.
Serves 8!.
