Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams New potatoes
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 pieces Garlic cloves (minced)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
- 1 tablespoon Fresh rosemary leaves (finely chopped)
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper (freshly ground)
- 1 tablespoon Parsley (finely chopped, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
Wash the new potatoes thoroughly and pat them dry. If the potatoes are larger than bite-sized, cut them in halves or quarters to ensure even roasting.
In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, fresh lemon juice, lemon zest, chopped rosemary, salt, and black pepper.
Add the potatoes to the bowl and toss well to coat them evenly with the lemon mixture.
Spread the coated potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded for better roasting.
Roast in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, flipping the potatoes halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside while tender on the inside.
Remove the potatoes from the oven and transfer them to a serving dish.
Sprinkle the roasted potatoes with freshly chopped parsley for garnish. Serve hot and enjoy!
