    Crispy Herb Roasted Potatoes

    The potatoes are crispy from the edges and tender toward the centre and, and the fresh herbs and Parmesan cheese really give them an oh-so flavour. SO delicious!

    I prefer to use Yukon Gold potato since it is perfect for roasting, and it cooks quickly. I also find that Russets are good for roasting as well, and it get crispy and golden brown.

    Here are my secrets to crispy potatoes:

    To make extra crispy roasted potatoes, I recommend broiling them for extra 3-4 minutes after baking to get the crispy exterior and lovely golden color.

    Another method is to flip the potatoes on the other side and bake them for 4-5 minutes more. Also, don't overcrowd the baking sheet; make sure to arrange the potatoes on the baking sheet in a single layer.

    Ingredients

    Potatoes: I used Yukon Gold potato. You may also use small baby potatoes if you like.

    Olive oil: Use extra virgin olive oil; it helps in making the potatoes crispy.

    Parmesan: For flavor.

    Herbs: Fresh thyme, fresh Parsley and dried oregano.

    Fresh garlic: For the best taste, don't use the store-bought minced garlic.

    Salt & black pepper

    How To Make Herb Roasted Potatoes

    First Step: Preheat the oven to 210C / 410F. Peel and cut the potatoes into small pieces about two-inch pieces. Then Mix olive oil, garlic, parmesan, oregano, thyme, salt and black pepper in a bowl.

    Second Step: Toss the potatoes in the mixture, making sure they all coat evenly. Transfer the potatoes to a baking sheet.

    Pro Tip: For best results, arrange the potatoes on the baking sheet in a single layer and don't overly crowd the baking sheet.

    Third Step: Roast in the oven for 40-50 minutes. Then broil for extra 3-4 minutes until it becomes golden brown. Serve.

    Pro Tip: Large potatoes tend to take more time to cook; You can use baby potatoes or chop the regular ones into small pieces.
