Ingredients

• Here's what you'll need for this delightful dish:
• - 2 pounds of small potatoes, halved
• - 4 cloves of garlic, minced
• - 4 tablespoons of olive oil
• - 1 tablespoon of fresh rosemary, chopped
• - 1 tablespoon of fresh thyme, chopped
• - Salt and pepper to taste
• If you can't find small potatoes, feel free to use regular ones cut into chunks. If fresh herbs are not available, dried ones will work just as well.

Preparation Method

Let's dive into the cooking process.

Start off by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). While the oven is heating up, toss your halved potatoes in a large bowl. Add in the minced garlic, olive oil, chopped rosemary, thyme, and a generous seasoning of salt and pepper. Give everything a good mix until the potatoes are well coated in the herby, garlicky goodness.

Next, arrange the potatoes on a baking sheet in a single layer. Make sure none of the potatoes are overlapping; this ensures each potato gets its fair share of heat and becomes beautifully golden and crispy.

Pop the baking sheet in the preheated oven and let the potatoes roast for about 40-45 minutes. Halfway through, give the potatoes a good stir to ensure they brown evenly. You'll know they're done when they're golden brown and crispy on the outside, and a fork can easily pierce them.

Tips and Conclusion

For an even more indulgent treat, sprinkle your roasted garlic herb potatoes with some freshly grated Parmesan cheese just a few minutes before theyre done roasting. Remove them from the oven when the cheese is melted and slightly golden. This adds a lovely savory touch to the potatoes and makes them even more irresistible!
