Whether you're looking for a crowd-pleasing side or a simple yet flavorful addition to your meal, these roasted potatoes are sure to impress.
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
Rinse and scrub the baby potatoes thoroughly. If they are large, cut them in half; otherwise, leave them whole.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, ground cumin, cumin seeds, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Add the potatoes to the mixing bowl and toss well to ensure they are evenly coated with the spice mixture.
Spread the potatoes onto the prepared baking tray in a single layer, being careful not to overcrowd them.
Roast the potatoes in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, flipping them halfway through cooking for even browning.
Check for doneness by piercing the potatoes with a fork; they should be tender and golden brown on the outside.
Remove the potatoes from the oven and transfer them to a serving dish.
Optional: Sprinkle freshly chopped parsley over the top for a pop of color and added freshness.
Serve warm as a side dish with your favorite main course and enjoy!
