Ingredients
- ¼-1/3 cup olive oil
- 6 cloves garlic finely chopped or minced
- 1 ½ teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- ½ teaspoon cracked black pepper
- ¾ cup Parmesan Cheese fresh grated
- 3 pounds red potatoes washed and quartered
- ½ cup unsalted butter
- 4 tablespoons fresh parsley finely chopped, for serving
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400ºF (200°C). Grease a large baking sheet with non-stick spray or olive oil. Set aside.
- In a bowl, combine ¼ cup of olive oil, garlic, salt, herbs, pepper and parmesan cheese together, mixing to combine. Add the remaining oil if the parmesan cheese has absorbed most of it.
- Toss potatoes through the mixture to evenly coat.
- Arrange coated potatoes in a single layer onto prepared baking sheet. Spread them out and bake for 45-50 minutes, carefully turning every 15 minutes or so with tongs or with a spatula, until potatoes are browned and edges are crisp. For extra crispy potatoes, broil (or grill) for 2-4 minutes, or until browned to your liking.
Cup of Yum
While potatoes are in the oven, brown your butter:
- Melt ½ cup of butter in a small pot or skillet over medium heat. Stir the butter continuously and swirl the pan occasionally to allow the butter to cook evenly and prevent too much splattering.
- When it begins to foam, the colour will change from yellow to tan to a rich golden brown colour. As soon as you smell a nutty aroma, take the pan off the heat. Give it a light mix with a wooden spoon to lift up any browned bits on the base of your pan and pour over the roasted potatoes.
- Season with a little extra salt and pepper (If desired), and sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving.
Notes
- For a bit of extra crunch, leave the skins on your potatoes!
