Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 lbs Baby potatoes
- 2 tbsp Fresh rosemary
- 1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 cup Sharp cheddar cheese, grated
- 1 tsp Garlic powder
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Ground black pepper
- 3 tbsp Olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a large baking dish or sheet with olive oil and set aside.
Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly and cut them in half to create even sizes for roasting. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towel.
In a small mixing bowl, combine grated Parmesan cheese, grated cheddar cheese, chopped fresh rosemary, garlic powder, salt, and ground black pepper. Mix well to evenly distribute the flavors.
Spread the cheese mixture over the base of the baking dish in an even layer.
Drizzle the cut surfaces of the potatoes with olive oil, then place the potatoes cut-side down directly onto the cheese mixture.
Roast the potatoes in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the bottoms of the potatoes are golden brown and crispy, and the potatoes are fork-tender.
Remove the dish from the oven and allow it to cool for 5 minutes. Carefully lift the potatoes out of the baking dish, keeping the cheese crust intact.
Serve the potatoes warm as a side dish or appetizer. Garnish with extra chopped rosemary if desired.
