Ingredients
- 500g baby potatoes
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt, to taste
- Pepper, to taste
- Fresh parsley, for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) to prepare for roasting the potatoes evenly.
- Prepare Potatoes: Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly and then halve them to allow the garlic sauce to coat inside and out.
- Make Garlic Mixture: In a bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and pepper to create a flavorful marinade.
- Coat Potatoes: Toss the halved baby potatoes in the garlic mixture until they are well coated with the oil and seasoning.
- Arrange for Baking: Spread the coated potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet to ensure even roasting.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden brown and tender when pierced with a fork.
- Garnish and Serve: Remove the potatoes from the oven and garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving warm.
Notes
- For extra crispy potatoes, you can parboil them for 5 minutes before tossing them in the garlic mixture.
- Adjust the amount of garlic to taste for a milder or stronger garlic flavor.
- Feel free to add other herbs like rosemary or thyme for additional aroma.
- These potatoes pair wonderfully with grilled meats or as part of a vegetarian meal.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days and reheated in the oven for best texture.
