Dill Potatoes
Description
This recipe uses small potatoes, halved or quartered according to size, coated in olive oil and roasted in a single layer at 400ºF (200ºC) until crisp and golden, typically 45-55 minutes. The roasting brings out the natural starches and creates a crunchy surface while keeping the interior tender.
Immediately after roasting, the potatoes are tossed with dill seasoning, which sticks to the hot, oiled surface, infusing the potatoes with a bright, herbaceous flavor. The recipe recommends medium-starch varieties such as Yukon Gold, Dutch Cream, Desiree, Maris Piper, or Vivaldi for optimal texture.
This side works well as an accompaniment to a variety of main dishes, offering a simple herb-forward potato option. The dill seasoning can be store-bought or made fresh with a blend of complementary herbs.
Ingredients
- 2 pounds potato see note 1, small
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1½ tablespoons dill see note 2, seasoning
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400ºF/200ºC.
- Cut the potatoes in half or quarters (if they're large), place them in a mixing bowl with the olive oil, and toss them to coat.
- Transfer the potatoes to a roasting tin, ensuring they are in a single layer.
- Roast the potatoes for 45-55 minutes until golden and crispy.
- As soon as the potatoes come out of the oven, toss them with the dill seasoning mix and serve. (see note 3)
Notes
- Use medium-starch potatoes like Yukon Gold or Desiree for the best texture.
- Dill seasoning can be purchased or homemade for fresh flavor.
- Toss potatoes with dill seasoning immediately after roasting to help it adhere to the hot oil coating.
