Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes
- 2 tablespoons Fresh rosemary
- 6 large Garlic cloves
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Wash and scrub the Yukon Gold potatoes thoroughly. Optionally, peel them if you prefer. Cut the potatoes into evenly sized chunks, about 1-2 inches wide.
In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the potato chunks and parboil for 5-7 minutes until the edges just start to soften. Drain the potatoes and let them cool for a few minutes to dry out.
While the potatoes cool, finely chop the fresh rosemary and peel the garlic cloves. Crush the garlic cloves with the side of a knife, keeping them intact.
Transfer the cooled potatoes to a large mixing bowl. Add olive oil, rosemary, crushed garlic, salt, and black pepper. Toss everything together so the potatoes are evenly coated.
Spread the potatoes out in a single layer on a large baking sheet. Make sure there’s space between the pieces to allow them to crisp up.
Roast the potatoes in the oven for 40-45 minutes, flipping them halfway through to ensure all sides are golden brown and crispy.
Remove from the oven and optionally toss the potatoes with a tablespoon of unsalted butter for extra richness.
Serve immediately as a side dish and enjoy the aromatic flavors of rosemary and garlic!
