Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds baby potatoes
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves
- 3 whole, minced garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 tablespoons parmesan cheese (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
Wash and dry the baby potatoes. Cut them in half if they are large; leave smaller potatoes whole for even cooking.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the potatoes, olive oil, thyme leaves, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Toss until the potatoes are evenly coated.
Spread the coated potatoes out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, with the cut sides facing down for maximum crispiness.
Roast the potatoes in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, flipping them halfway through cooking to ensure even browning.
Once the potatoes are golden brown and crispy, remove them from the oven. If desired, sprinkle with freshly grated parmesan cheese for added flavor.
Transfer the roasted potatoes to a serving bowl and garnish with a few extra sprigs of thyme. Serve hot and enjoy!
