Description
Deliciously crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, homemade roast potatoes make the perfect side dish for any meal.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 pounds Russet or Yukon Gold potatoes
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 3 cloves garlic (minced) or 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary or thyme (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Peel and chop the potatoes into even 1-inch chunks.
- Boil the potatoes for about 10 minutes until they start to soften but are not fully cooked.
- Drain the potatoes and shake them in the pot to rough them up.
- In a large bowl, toss the potatoes with olive oil, salt, pepper, and herbs until thoroughly coated.
- Spread the potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet and roast for 30-35 minutes, turning halfway through.
- Garnish with herbs if desired and serve immediately.
Notes
For extra flavor, consider adding grated parmesan before roasting. Make sure to give them enough space on the baking sheet for optimal crispiness.
