Ingredients
Scale
Potatoes and Seasoning
- 3 lb new potatoes
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 2 tbsp cornstarch
- 1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tsp kosher salt
- 1 tsp paprika
- 2 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 2 tsp minced fresh rosemary
Toppings
- ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F. If your oven has a convection setting, select convection at the same temperature to ensure even roasting and extra crispiness.
- Prepare the Potatoes: Wash and cut the new potatoes into quarters to ensure they cook evenly and achieve a crispy exterior while remaining tender inside.
- Mix Seasonings: In a large bowl, combine olive oil, cornstarch, black pepper, kosher salt, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and minced rosemary. Toss the quartered potatoes thoroughly in this mixture so that every piece is evenly coated with the flavorful blend.
- Arrange for Roasting: Spread the seasoned potatoes evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Make sure the pieces are in a single layer without overlapping to help them roast properly.
- Roast the Potatoes: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 25 to 30 minutes until the potatoes develop a crispy outside and a soft, creamy interior. Occasionally check to prevent burning if needed.
- Add Toppings and Serve: Once roasted, transfer the potatoes to a serving dish. Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the top and garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired. Serve immediately while hot and crispy.
Notes
- Using cornstarch in the coating helps create an irresistibly crispy texture on the outside of the potatoes.
- A combination of garlic, paprika, and rosemary infuses the potatoes with rich, fresh flavors.
- Parmesan cheese adds a salty, savory finish that complements the herbs perfectly.
- This side dish is versatile and pairs well with grilled meats, roasted chicken, or vegetarian entrees.
- For a gluten-free meal, ensure all spices and cornstarch used are certified gluten-free.
