Let’s be real: the main course is fine. But these potatoes? These potatoes are the reason people come back for seconds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Crispy on the outside. Pillowy on the inside. Coated in salty Parmesan and garlic. Roasted until the bottoms form a crunchy, cheesy golden crust. They’re the side dish that never makes it home in leftovers. Make a double batch. Trust me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ingredients<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Serves 4.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n
2 lbs (900g) baby potatoes or Yukon Golds, cut into 1-inch pieces<\/li>\n\n\n\n
\u00bc cup olive oil<\/li>\n\n\n\n
\u00bd cup grated Parmesan cheese<\/li>\n\n\n\n
3 cloves garlic, minced<\/li>\n\n\n\n
1 teaspoon salt<\/li>\n\n\n\n
\u00bd teaspoon black pepper<\/li>\n\n\n\n
1 teaspoon dried oregano or rosemary (optional)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Fresh parsley for garnish<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Step-by-Step Instructions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Step 1: Preheat and Prep<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n
Preheat oven to 425\u00b0F (220\u00b0C).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper (not foil\u2014potatoes will stick).<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
Step 2: Coat the Potatoes<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n
In a large bowl, toss potatoes with olive oil, garlic, salt, pepper, and oregano (if using).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Add Parmesan and toss again until coated.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
Step 3: Roast Until Crispy<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n
Spread potatoes in a single layer on the baking sheet.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Roast for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden brown and crispy on the edges.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
For extra crunch, broil for 1-2 minutes at the end.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
Step 4: Serve<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n
Garnish with fresh parsley.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Serve immediately while hot and crunchy.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
Fridge:<\/strong> Leftovers keep for 4 days. They will lose crispiness.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Reheat:<\/strong> Air fryer at 375\u00b0F for 5 minutes or oven at 400\u00b0F for 8 minutes. Don’t microwave.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Pro tip:<\/strong> These are best fresh from the oven. Make only what you’ll eat.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
