Roast potatoes with sea salt & herbs

Roast potatoes with sea salt & herbs is a classic and delicious side dish that complements a wide range of main courses. This recipe combines the earthy flavors of rosemary and oregano with the rich taste of olive oil to create perfectly crispy and flavorful potatoes. It's simple to prepare and sure to be a hit with your family and guests.

Ingredients:

1/2 cup olive oil
120g
6 potatoes
1200g
1 tsp salt
5g
1 tbsp rosemary
16g
1 tbsp dried oregano
16g
1 tsp black pepper
2g

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Prepare the Potatoes:
- Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly to remove any dirt.
- Peel the potatoes if you prefer, though leaving the skin on can add extra texture and flavor.
- Cut the potatoes into even-sized chunks, approximately 1-2 inches in diameter for even cooking.
3. Season the Potatoes:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, salt, chopped rosemary, dried oregano, and black pepper. Stir well to mix all the ingredients.
- Add the potato chunks to the bowl and toss them thoroughly, ensuring each piece is well-coated with the oil and herb mixture.
4. Arrange in Pan:
- Arrange the seasoned potato chunks in a single layer on a large baking sheet or roasting pan. Ensure they are spread out evenly to promote even roasting and avoid overcrowding.
5. Roast the Potatoes:
- Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven.
- Roast the potatoes for about 45-50 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
- Halfway through the cooking time, about 25 minutes in, use a spatula to turn the potatoes to ensure even roasting on all sides.
6. Check for Doneness:
- Insert a fork into a potato chunk; it should be very easy to pierce.
- If the potatoes are not yet done, roast for an additional 5-10 minutes, checking periodically.
7. Serve:
- Once the potatoes are roasted to your satisfaction, remove them from the oven.
- Optionally, you can add an extra sprinkle of sea salt or a few fresh rosemary sprigs on top for garnish.
8. Enjoy:
- Serve the roasted potatoes hot as a delightful side dish for any meal.

Tips:

- Choose potatoes that are similar in size to ensure even cooking.

- Parboil the potatoes for 5-10 minutes before roasting to achieve an extra crispy texture.

- Toss the potatoes in the olive oil mixture thoroughly to ensure they are evenly coated.

- Spread the potatoes in a single layer on the baking tray to avoid overcrowding.

- Turn the potatoes halfway through the roasting time to ensure they brown evenly on all sides.
