Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs Baby potatoes or small red potatoes
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 1 tsp Smoked paprika
- 1 tsp Ground cumin
- 1 tsp Garlic powder
- 1 tsp Onion powder
- 0.5 tsp Ground black pepper
- 0.5 tsp Crushed red pepper flakes
- 2 tbsp Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to prevent sticking.
Wash and scrub the baby potatoes to remove dirt. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel. If the potatoes are larger, cut them in half or quarters to ensure even cooking.
Place the potatoes in a large mixing bowl. Add the olive oil, smoked paprika, ground cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes.
Toss the potatoes well to ensure they are evenly coated with the oil and spices.
Spread the potatoes out on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, ensuring there is enough space between them for proper roasting.
Roast the potatoes in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, flipping them halfway through to ensure even browning. The potatoes should be golden brown and crispy on the outside while soft and tender inside.
Once done, remove the potatoes from the oven. Taste and, if desired, sprinkle a pinch more black pepper or garnish with fresh parsley for added flavor.
Serve immediately as a side dish or enjoy as a healthy and spicy snack!
