Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 medium Yukon Gold potatoes
- 4 large Garlic cloves
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoons Paprika
- 2 tablespoons Grated Parmesan (optional)
Instructions
Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly. Leave the skins on for extra texture and nutrients.
Cut the potatoes into evenly sized 1-inch cubes to ensure even cooking.
Peel and mince the garlic cloves. Set aside.
In a large pot, bring water to a boil and add a generous pinch of salt. Add the potato cubes and parboil for about 8 to 10 minutes, until they are just tender but not fully cooked. Drain and let them cool slightly.
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the parboiled potatoes, olive oil, melted butter, minced garlic, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and paprika. Toss until the potatoes are well coated.
Spread the potatoes out on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Avoid overcrowding to ensure they get crispy.
Roast the potatoes in the preheated oven for about 25 to 30 minutes, flipping them halfway through to ensure even browning.
While the potatoes are roasting, finely chop the parsley.
Once the potatoes are golden and crispy, remove them from the oven and transfer them to a serving dish.
Sprinkle the roasted potatoes with fresh parsley and, if desired, grated Parmesan for extra flavor.
Serve immediately as a side dish or enjoy them as a snack!
