Ingredients
- 2 pounds (90 kg) red potatoes, quartered
- 2 – 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, optional
- 1 teaspoon thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon mineral salt, or to taste
- 3/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper, or to taste
- chopped fresh parsley, to serve
Instructions
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (232 C). Line a sheet pan with parchment, a silpat, or lightly grease with oil.
Prep: Scrub potatoes well, slice in half and cut into quarters (if using baby potatoes you may rather just cut them in half).
Season: Place potatoes on sheet pan, drizzle with oil, herbs and spices, toss well to coat and spread in a single layer.
Roast: Place baking sheet in the oven, on middle rack, and roast for 40 – 45 minutes, stirring 2 – 3 times.
Remove from oven, let cool a few minutes and serve warm with chopped parsley sprinkled overtop.
Serves 6 – 8
Pair these roasted red potatoes with this The Ultimate Vegetable Lentil Loaf, or serve as a mono meal or side drizzled with this Garlic Aioli, Sriracha Cashew Sauce or Creamy Lemon- Herb Hemp Dressing!
Notes
In place of fresh thyme, you can use fresh chopped rosemary, parsley, or even oregano. Dried herbs are just as good. I use 1 teaspoon, but feel free to add more or less.
Use a little more garlic powder if you like, I used 1/2 teaspoon which was just right for me, and not overpowering.
Recipe can easily be halved, or doubled for a crowd.
RECOMMENDED EQUIPMENT: I love my Silpat or these parchment liners for lining this rimmed baking sheet (affiliate links).
