Roasty Potatoes 0
This is a simple recipe, but we’ve come to really like it, especially when served with sauteed baby bella mushrooms.
If you search the internet for this, you will find many variations, especially regarding the cooking time; recommended times range from 30 minutes to an hour. This is what we’ve found best.
Ingredients:
Small white potatoes, 5-7 per serving, depending on their size.
Olive oil.
Herbs and spices to taste. I commonly use garlic powder, pepper, basil, rosemary, and dill.
Procedure:
1. Wash potatoes, then roll them in olive oil until coated thoroughly.
2. Place on cookie sheet or a reasonable facsimile thereof.
3. Sprinkle with desired seasonings on both sides.
4. Cook in oven at 375 degrees for 45 minutes.
The cooked potatoes will be hot and will hold heat tenaciously. I recommend cutting them in half.
