Ingredients

1.5 pounds baby potatoes (choose a mix of colors for an attractive presentation)

4 tablespoons olive oil

6 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon dried rosemary (or 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped)

1 teaspoon dried thyme (or 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, finely chopped)

1 teaspoon sea salt

½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

2 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese (optional, for a cheesy finish)

Fresh parsley, finely chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C) to ensure it reaches the right temperature for roasting.

Prepare the Potatoes: Rinse the baby potatoes under cold water to remove any dirt. Use a kitchen towel to pat them dry thoroughly. If any potatoes are larger than a golf ball, cut them in half to ensure they roast evenly.

Mix the Marinade: In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, dried rosemary, dried thyme, sea salt, and black pepper. Use a whisk to mix everything together until you achieve a homogeneous marinade.

Coat the Potatoes: Add the cleaned baby potatoes to the bowl with the marinade. Toss them gently but thoroughly, making sure each potato is evenly coated in the flavorful garlic mixture.

Arrange on Baking Sheet: Transfer the marinated potatoes onto a large baking sheet, arranging them in a single layer. Spacing them out will allow for optimal roasting and crispiness.

Roasting Time: Place the baking sheet in your preheated oven and roast the potatoes for about 25-30 minutes. They should be golden brown and tender when pierced with a fork. Halfway through roasting, gently shake the pan or turn the potatoes for even browning.

Finish with Cheese (optional): In the last 5 minutes of roasting, sprinkle the freshly grated Parmesan cheese over the potatoes. Allow it to melt and create a delicious cheesy crust.

Garnish and Serve: Once roasted to your desired level of perfection, remove the baking sheet from the oven. Transfer the potatoes to a serving bowl and garnish with a sprinkle of finely chopped fresh parsley for added color and freshness.

Enjoy Your Dish: Serve these delightful garlic roasted baby potatoes warm, either as a side dish to complement your favorite main course or as a delicious appetizer on their own!
