Ingredients
Scale
Potatoes
- 2 pounds potatoes, diced
Seasoning
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon dried rosemary
- 1 tablespoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 425°F (220°C) to ensure it reaches the optimal temperature for roasting the potatoes to a perfect golden brown.
- Mix potatoes and seasoning: In a large bowl, combine the diced potatoes with olive oil, dried rosemary, dried thyme, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Toss everything together to coat evenly, maximizing flavor on every piece.
- Arrange on baking sheet: Spread the coated potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet. This helps them roast evenly and crisp up beautifully.
- Roast the potatoes: Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes. Halfway through roasting, turn the potatoes to ensure all sides become golden and crispy.
- Serve hot: Once roasted to your liking, remove the potatoes from the oven and serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
Notes
- For extra crispiness, soak diced potatoes in cold water for 30 minutes before seasoning to remove excess starch, then dry thoroughly.
- Fresh herbs can be substituted for dried if available (double the quantity of fresh herbs).
- Adjust herbs and garlic powder amounts according to personal taste preferences.
- This recipe pairs well with grilled meats or roasted vegetables.
- Use Yukon Gold or red potatoes for creamier texture or Russets for fluffier interior and crispier crust.
