Hello Dear Friends,
Today I wanted to talk about potatoes. I am sure everyone has their favorite recipe and the way of making them. I love them really in any way, shape or form and these have always worked the best for me when it comes to taste and texture – soft inside and crispy on the outside. They are super easy to make and I hope they will soon make an appearance at your table too! Have a wonderful week! 🙂
Easy Oven Roasted Potatoes
Ingredients:
- 2.5 – 3 lb (1.1 – 1.4 kg) Russet potatoes
- 1/2 tsp salt
- Fresh ground black pepper
- 1 tsp dried rosemary or a few twigs fresh rosemary
- 2 TBSP olive oil
- 2 TBSP grated parmesan cheese
Preparation:
- Peel potatoes, wash them well.
- Slice each potato once through starting at the narrower part, to get two halves
- Slice each half into 3 wedges.
4. Place the wedges into a pot and cook them for just about 5 minutes. They are to remain firm.
5. Strain and arrange them on a baking sheet covered with parchment paper.
6. Spice the wedges with salt, black pepper and rosemary.
7. Brush with olive oil and toss it all together so the spices and oil can spread evenly over potatoes.
8. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese (if desired) and stir once again.
9. Bake at 400 F (200 C) until bottom of the potatoes start getting a nice golden-brown color.
10. Now turn on the broiler for 5 minutes on low and then a few minutes on high.
11. Cool for a few minutes and serve as a side dish or just by itself.
YUM! ENJOY! :)

This is how I roast my potatoes too, yum!
Thanks Jasline! 🙂
That looks mouthwatering…I love potatoes too, I could eat them every day, all day long 🙂
Thank you Jas! 🙂
Beautiful. Nice how-to images.
Thanks Darryl! 🙂
These look perfect Sibella! I make a similar recipe with oregano and smoked paprika – the parmesan cheese really makes it though.
Thank you Korena! Oregano and smoked paprika sounds yummy too; will give it a try!
Sounds delicious. Have you ever had Greek roasted lemon potatoes? They are cut into wedges like yours. They have olive oil on them and also oregano and lemon juice. I haven’t had any for quite a while so I don’t remember if there is also garlic.
Hi Bobbi! No, I never had those, but now you sparked my interest so I will look them up. Thanks! 🙂
My boys love roasted potatoes and thy would love your recipe. I would have to double the recipe of course. Loving your new artwork and design template. Hoping that you and your family are doing well.
I bet your boys are getting older and hungrier 😀 My kids are not kids anymore 21 and 18; where did the time go?! So nice to hear from you! 🙂
love roasted potatoes – I parboil mine then shake up with semolina and then put them in a hot oven – makes them really crispy!
Hmmm that sounds interesting, will give it a try. Thanks! 🙂
It is really nice – I read the idea in an english magazine and copied it, tastes lovely, love the crunch!
Hi Isabella,
your recipes are wonderful. I`m sorry for writing here but I did not find another contact. I love bosnian food so my question: Could you maybe also make Cevapcici? (Sorry for my english, I`m from Germany :-)) Best wishes
Hi Sanja! Thanks so much and I am sorry for a delayed response. I do not longer write on this blog because I am really busy, but I hope in the future that I will be able to post a cevapcici recipe. You can also write in German, which I understand. Thanks again for visiting! Liebe Gruesse! 🙂
