Golden roasted potatoes with crispy edges and a fluffy interior, seasoned with garlic and herbs for a simple yet irresistible side dish.

Ingredients

  • Potatoes (Yukon gold or russet)
  • Olive oil
  • Garlic
  • Salt
  • Black pepper
  • Paprika
  • Dried herbs (such as rosemary or thyme)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Peel the potatoes if desired and cut them into evenly sized chunks.
  3. Place the potatoes in a pot of salted water and bring to a boil. Cook for 8–10 minutes until just tender.
  4. Drain and let them sit for a few minutes to dry, then shake gently to rough up the edges.
  5. Transfer to a bowl and toss with olive oil, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, paprika, and dried herbs.
  6. Spread the potatoes in a single layer on the baking sheet without overcrowding.
  7. Roast for 35–45 minutes, turning halfway through, until golden and crispy.
  8. Serve hot.

Notes

  • Roughing up the potatoes helps create extra crispiness.
  • Add Parmesan cheese during the last 10 minutes for a cheesy crust.
  • Use duck fat or butter for richer flavor.
  • Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
  • Reheat in the oven to maintain crisp texture.
