Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes
- 10 leaves Fresh sage leaves
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.
Cut the Yukon Gold potatoes into 1-inch cubes, ensuring they are as uniform as possible for even cooking.
Peel the garlic cloves and slice them thinly. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the potato cubes, olive oil, salt, black pepper, and paprika (if using). Toss well to coat the potatoes evenly.
Transfer the potato mixture to the prepared baking sheet, spreading the potatoes out into a single layer to ensure even roasting.
Distribute the fresh sage leaves and sliced garlic cloves evenly among the potatoes, tucking some under the cubes to prevent them from burning.
Roast the potatoes in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, turning them halfway through the cooking time to ensure they brown evenly.
Once the potatoes are golden brown and crispy on the outside while tender on the inside, remove them from the oven.
Serve immediately as a delicious side dish, garnished with additional sage leaves if desired.
