Garlic Herb Roasted Red Potatoes are crispy on the outside, fluffy inside, and packed with flavor—perfect as a side for almost any meal.
🥔 Ingredients
- 500–700g red potatoes (washed, cut into halves or quarters)
- 3–4 cloves garlic (minced)
- 2–3 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp salt (adjust to taste)
- ½ tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp dried oregano or thyme
- 1 tsp dried rosemary (or mixed Italian herbs)
- Optional: paprika or chili flakes for a little heat
- Fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)
🔥 Instructions
1. Preheat oven
- Set to 200°C (400°F)
2. Prep the potatoes
- Cut into even-sized pieces so they cook evenly
- Pat dry (this helps them crisp up)
3. Season
- In a bowl, toss potatoes with olive oil, garlic, salt, pepper, and herbs
- Make sure everything is well coated
4. Roast
- Spread on a baking tray in a single layer
- Roast for 30–40 minutes, flipping halfway through
5. Finish
- Once golden and crispy, remove from oven
- Sprinkle fresh parsley and a pinch of salt if needed
💡 Tips for Perfect Crispy Potatoes
- Don’t overcrowd the tray
- Use high heat
- For extra crispiness: soak cut potatoes in water 20 minutes, then dry well
- Add a squeeze of lemon at the end for a fresh twist
🍽️ Serving Ideas
- Pair with grilled chicken, fish, or eggs
- Serve with yogurt or garlic sauce
- Great as a breakfast or dinner side
If you want, I can give you a crispy air fryer version or a spicy desi-style variation.
