Ingredients
Scale
Potatoes
- 2 lbs potatoes, chopped
Seasoning & Garnish
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to ensure it reaches the perfect temperature for roasting the potatoes evenly and achieving a crispy texture.
- Toss potatoes with seasoning: In a large bowl, combine the chopped potatoes with olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly to coat all the potato pieces evenly with the oil and seasonings.
- Arrange for roasting: Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet, ensuring they have enough space to roast properly and get crispy edges.
- Roast the potatoes: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 35-40 minutes, flipping the potatoes halfway through the cooking time to ensure they brown evenly on all sides.
- Garnish and serve: Once the potatoes are golden and crispy, remove them from the oven and sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley for a burst of color and freshness before serving.
Notes
- For extra crispiness, you can parboil the potatoes for 5 minutes before tossing with oil and garlic.
- Feel free to add herbs like rosemary or thyme for additional flavor.
- To keep the potatoes evenly cooked, try to chop them into uniform sizes.
- Leftover roast potatoes can be reheated in the oven or air fryer for best texture.
