Ingredients

  • 2 ½ pounds yellow potato peeled cut into cubes about ¾-1-inch - see Café Tips above in the post, or golden potato
  • 3 tablespoons neutral-flavored oil see Café Tips above
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt more to taste
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper fresh ground
  • 3 medium garlic finely minced, cloves
  • 2 teaspoons rosemary finely chopped fresh

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 425˚F (218°C)
  2. Pour the oil onto a sheet pan and place the pan in the preheated oven.
  3. Place the peeled and cubed potatoes in a large pot and cover with water. Add 2 teaspoons of kosher salt and bring to a boil.
  4. Continue to cook over high heat, uncovered, for 5 minutes. Drain in a sieve then spread the potatoes out on a clean kitchen towel to dry for 5 minutes.
  5. Remove the hot sheet pan from the oven and add the potatoes (the potatoes will sizzle a bit in the hot oil), salt and pepper. Toss them with a metal spatula to coat with the oil and seasoning.
  6. Roast for 35-40 minutes or until golden brown, turning and redistributing them every 10 minutes.
  7. Remove from the oven and add the rosemary and garlic. Toss the potatoes with a metal spatula one more time to evenly distribute the flavorings.
  8. Taste and season with more kosher salt (or flaky sea salt) and pepper, if needed.
  9. Transfer to a serving platter and pray that you made enough.

  • If you prefer to use Metric measurements there is a button in each of our recipes, right above the word “Instructions”. Just click that button to toggle to grams, milliliters, etc. If you ever come across one of our recipes that doesn’t have the Metric conversion (some of the older recipes may not), feel free to leave a comment and I will add it.
