Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes
- 6 whole Garlic cloves
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 teaspoons Fresh rosemary
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Wash and scrub the potatoes, then cut them into evenly-sized 1-inch cubes for consistent cooking.
Peel the garlic cloves and slightly smash them with the flat side of a knife to release their flavor.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the potatoes, smashed garlic, olive oil, rosemary, salt, and ground black pepper. Toss thoroughly to coat every potato cube in the seasoning.
Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil. Spread the potatoes out in a single layer, ensuring they aren’t too crowded for even roasting.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast the potatoes for 20 minutes.
After 20 minutes, remove the baking sheet from the oven and use a spatula to flip the potatoes for even browning. Return them to the oven and roast for an additional 20 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy on the edges.
While the potatoes are roasting, chop the parsley finely and set it aside.
Remove the roasted potatoes from the oven and let them cool for 2-3 minutes. Transfer them to a serving dish, sprinkle with fresh parsley for added flavor, and serve immediately.
