Roasted Red Potatoes
Potatoes are just a wonderful comfort food. Can there be too many ways to fix them? I don’t think so. Since we mentioned them yesterday with the Maple Baked Chicken, we thought we’d share this simple and basic method -because simple is always good and in this case delicious! Just looking at the picture I’m thinking mmm . . . maybe I’ll roast some tonight!
Roasted Red Potatoes
Ingredients:
1 1/2 pounds baby red potatoes, quartered
2 tablespoons olive oil
Fresh ground salt and pepper
That’s the basics: now depending on your menu you can go crazy with seasonings. Try Rosemary, Thyme, Garlic, Lawrys, Old Bay. . . oh the possibilities!
Directions:
Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Toss potatoes with oil, salt and pepper {yummy with just salt and pepper or add any other seasonings you want}. Spread potatoes into a single layer. Roast, stirring occasionally until all sides are crispy and brown {because crispy is the best part } about 30-45 minutes.
*This batch makes enough for 4, but add more or just cook however many you need for your crew!
I have been making red potatoes like this for years, they are delicious. I also like Ina’s red roasted potatoes coated with mustard, then the olive oil & salt, just great!
mmm… the mustard is a great idea! Thanks for the tip : )
