EASILY THE BEST GARLIC HERB ROASTED POTATOES RECIPE BY TASTY



Easily The Best Garlic Herb Roasted Potatoes Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: russet potatoes, baking soda, salt, olive oil, garlic, fresh rosemary, black pepper, salt, pepper, fresh parsley leaf

Provided by Merle O'Neal

Categories     Breakfast

Yield 5 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

13 russet potatoes, cut into 1-inch (2 1/2 cm) pieces
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
¼ cup olive oil
2 tablespoons garlic, minced
2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, or fresh thyme, finely chopped
1 teaspoon black pepper
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste
1 small handful fresh parsley leaf, minced to garnish

Steps:

  • Fill a large pot with water and boil. Add salt, baking soda, and potatoes, and stir.
  • Return to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and cook for 10 minutes after returning to a boil. A fork should easily pierce the potato pieces by the end. Drain and let sit one minute while moisture evaporates.
  • Combine olive oil, rosemary (or thyme), garlic, and a few grinds of black pepper in a small saucepan and heat over medium heat. Stir constantly until garlic just begins to turn golden, about 2-3 minutes.
  • Immediately strain oil through a fine-mesh strainer over the potatoes. Add salt and pepper to taste, and mix.
  • Shake the pot that the potatoes are in so that they slam against all sides of the pot, this will loosen the outer layer of the potatoes to form a mashed layer around each potato piece.
  • Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
  • Transfer potatoes to a large rimmed baking sheet and separate them, spreading them out evenly.
  • Transfer to oven and roast, without moving, for 30-35 minutes.
  • Using a thin, flexible metal spatula flip potatoes. Continue roasting until potatoes are deep brown and crisp all over, turning and shaking them a few times during cooking, 30 to 40 minutes longer.
  • Transfer potatoes to a large bowl and add the garlic-rosemary mixture (optional) and minced parsley. Toss to coat and season with more salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately.
  • Enjoy!

BEST ROAST POTATOES EVER



Best Roast Potatoes Ever image

I can hear you thinking "everyone knows how to do roast potatoes", but bear with me; following this recipe has given me the best never-fail perfect roast potatoes ever! Golden and crisp on the outside, soft and fluffy inside. There are other recipes posted on Recipezaar, but I've checked them and these directions are different! Obviously it helps if you use a variety of potato that is especially suitable for roasting (such as Maris Piper, King Edward or Desiree), but this recipe really will give you beautifully roasted potatoes that don't stick to the pan - the secret to success is in step 2.

Provided by Mrs B

Categories     Potato

Time 55m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

4 lbs potatoes (chose the best variety you can get for roasting)
4 ounces vegetable shortening (such as Trex or Crisco vegetable shortening)
3 -4 bay leaves (optional)
sea salt (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 F, 200 C, gas mark 6; peel the potatoes and cut them into evenly sized halves or chunks.
  • Put the potatoes into a large saucepan, cover with cold salted water and bring to the boil; drain the water off as soon as it comes to the boil - this step isn't to cook the potatoes: it heats them through so they start roasting more quickly - return the potatoes to the hot pan and dry them over the heat (it is important that the potatoes are dry for roasting, otherwise they are likely to stick to the baking tray).
  • Slide a large baking tray into the oven to heat up for a few minutes, add the vegetable fat to the potatoes in the hot pan and let it melt; turn the potatoes in the melted fat until they are shiny and well coated, then tip them onto the hot baking tray.
  • Place the tray in the oven for about 45 minutes; add the bay leaves, if using, 15 minutes into the cooking time; turn and baste the potatoes a few times during cooking.
  • To serve, lift the potatoes from the baking tray with a slotted spoon, sprinkle with sea salt if desired: NOTE - if you are unable to serve the potatoes immediately, do not cover them (they'll loose their crispiness); instead keep them warm in the oven until you are ready.

ULTIMATE ROAST POTATOES



Ultimate roast potatoes image

This foolproof recipe will ensure even first timers get crispy skins and fluffy insides. Make sure your roast potatoes are perfect for Sunday lunch or even Christmas dinner

Provided by Angela Nilsen

Categories     Dinner, Side dish

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 4

1kg Maris Piper potatoes
100g duck or goose fat (for a luxurious taste), or 100ml/3½fl oz olive oil
2 tsp flour
Maldon salt, to serve

Steps:

  • Put a roasting tin in the oven (one big enough to take the potatoes in a single layer) and heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6.
  • Peel 1kg potatoes and cut each into 4 even-sized pieces if they are medium size, 2-3 if smaller (5cm pieces).
  • Drop the potatoes into a large pan and pour in enough water to barely cover them.
  • Add salt, then wait for the water to boil. As soon as the water reaches a full rolling boil, lower the heat, put your timer on and simmer the potatoes uncovered, reasonably vigorously, for 2 mins.
  • Meanwhile, put 100g duck or goose fat or 100ml olive oil into the hot roasting tin and heat it in the oven for a few mins, so it's really hot.
  • Drain the potatoes in a colander then shake the colander back and forth a few times to fluff up the outsides.
  • Sprinkle with 2 tsp flour and give another shake or two so they are evenly and thinly coated.
  • Carefully put the potatoes into the hot fat - they will sizzle as they go in - then turn and roll them around so they are coated all over.
  • Spread them in a single layer making sure they have plenty of room.
  • Roast the potatoes for 15 mins, then take them out of the oven and turn them over.
  • Roast for another 15 mins and turn them over again. Put them back in the oven for another 10-20 mins, or however long it takes to get them really golden and crisp. The colouring will be uneven, which is what you want.
  • Scatter with Maldon salt and serve straight away.

Time 1h10m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 large russet potato
canola oil
kosher salt

Steps:

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: For roasting, Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes are ideal. They have a fluffy texture and a slightly sweet flavor that pairs well with the crispy roasted exterior.
  • Cut the potatoes evenly: This will ensure that they cook evenly. Aim for 1-inch pieces for a classic roasted potato shape, or try wedges or cubes for a different look.
  • Toss the potatoes with oil and seasonings: This will help them crisp up and develop flavor. Use a combination of olive oil, salt, pepper, and any other herbs or spices you like. Try paprika, garlic powder, or rosemary for a delicious variation.
  • Roast the potatoes at a high temperature: This will help them get crispy on the outside while staying tender on the inside. Aim for a temperature between 400°F and 450°F.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: Make sure there is enough space between the potatoes so that they can roast evenly. If you overcrowd the pan, the potatoes will steam instead of roast.
  • Flip the potatoes halfway through cooking: This will ensure that they brown evenly on all sides.
  • Roast the potatoes until they are tender and browned: The cooking time will vary depending on the size of the potatoes and the temperature of your oven. Check the potatoes with a fork to see if they are done.

Conclusion:

Oven-roasted potatoes are a classic side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of meals. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With the right tips and techniques, you can create perfectly roasted potatoes that are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. So next time you're looking for a delicious and versatile side dish, give oven-roasted potatoes a try.
