Potatoes
- 1 1/2 pounds fingerling potatoes
Seasoning
- 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, minced
- 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F to ensure it reaches the perfect temperature for roasting the potatoes evenly.
- Prepare Potatoes: Wash the fingerling potatoes thoroughly to remove any dirt. Slice the larger potatoes in half while leaving the smaller ones whole for even cooking.
- Toss with Seasoning: Place the potatoes in a medium bowl, add olive oil, fresh rosemary, kosher salt, and black pepper. Toss everything together until the potatoes are well coated.
- Arrange on Baking Sheet: Spread the seasoned potatoes out in a single layer on a sheet tray to allow for uniform roasting and crispiness.
- Roast Potatoes: Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, turning the potatoes halfway through the cooking time to ensure even browning and crispness.
- Serve: Remove from the oven and serve immediately while hot and flavorful.
Notes
- Cut the potatoes into similar sizes to ensure even cooking throughout.
- Ensure your oven is fully preheated to 425°F for the best roasting results.
- Spread potatoes in a single layer on the baking sheet to avoid steaming and promote crispiness.
- Turn the potatoes halfway through roasting for even color and texture.
- Use fresh rosemary for the best flavor; if substituting dried rosemary, use less to avoid overpowering.
- Be generous with salt and pepper to enhance the natural flavors of the potatoes and rosemary.
