Crisp roast potatoes with thyme are a classic, crowd-pleasing side dish that elevate any meal. This recipe combines the earthy flavors of fresh thyme and the aromatic essence of garlic with the rich, golden crispiness of perfectly roasted potatoes. Whether you're pairing them with a grand feast or a simple weeknight dinner, these potatoes are sure to be a hit.
- Use a variety of potato that's good for roasting, such as Yukon Gold or Russet. They have the right balance of starch and moisture.
- Make sure to cut the potatoes into uniform pieces to ensure even cooking.
- Parboil the potatoes before roasting for an extra crispy exterior. Boil them for about 10 minutes until they start to soften.
- After parboiling, shake the potatoes in the pot to roughen up their edges. This creates more surface area, which leads to crispier potatoes.
- Preheat your oil in the roasting pan before adding the potatoes. This helps to jumpstart the crisping process.
- Don't overcrowd the roasting pan; give the potatoes enough space so they can crisp all around.
- Rotate the potatoes halfway through the roasting time to ensure they brown evenly.
- Add the garlic later in the roasting process to prevent it from burning and becoming bitter.
- Season generously with salt and pepper to enhance the flavors.
- Feel free to experiment with other herbs like rosemary or parsley for a different twist.
With these tips and tricks, you'll have mouthwatering crisp roast potatoes with thyme that are golden and crispy on the outside, and soft and fluffy on the inside. Perfect for any meal, these potatoes will leave your family and guests asking for seconds. Enjoy!
