RAINBOW POTATO ROAST



Rainbow Potato Roast image

Each different type of potato here has its own distinctive flavor and texture as well as color. Some will roast more quickly than others but it doesn't matter to me if certain pieces in the mix become very soft. My favorite mix here consists of sweet potato, purple potatoes, fingerlings, Yukon golds and red bliss.

Time 1h

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 garlic clove, cut in half
1 1/2 pounds mixed white, yellow, purple, red and sweet potatoes (Yukon golds, fingerlings, red potatoes etc.), peeled if desired and cut in 1-inch pieces (I peel sweet potatoes but not potatoes with smooth skins.)
Salt and freshly ground pepper
2 teaspoons chopped fresh sage
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 ounce Parmesan, grated (1/4 cup) (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Rub a 2- or 3-quart baking dish or gratin with the cut side of the garlic and then brush with olive oil. Alternatively, line a sheet pan with parchment and omit the garlic. Place the potatoes in a large bowl. Season to taste with salt and pepper, add the sage and 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and toss again. Arrange in the baking dish or on the baking sheet.
  • Bake 40 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes. If you are using a baking dish the some of the potatoes might stick, but just coax them away from the dish with your spoon.
  • Add the remaining oil and the cheese if using, stir together and bake another 10 minutes, until the potatoes are crispy on the edges. Serve hot or warm.

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: For the best results, choose firm, waxy potatoes like Yukon Gold or Red Bliss. These hold their shape well and won't turn mushy when roasted.
  • Wash and dry the potatoes thoroughly: This will help them crisp up in the oven.
  • Cut the potatoes into even-sized pieces: This will help them cook evenly.
  • Toss the potatoes with oil and seasonings: Be generous with the oil, as this will help the potatoes brown and crisp. You can use olive oil, vegetable oil, or even melted butter. Season the potatoes with salt, pepper, and any other herbs or spices you like.
  • Roast the potatoes at a high temperature: This will help them get crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Aim for a temperature of 425 degrees Fahrenheit or higher.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: Make sure there is enough space between the potatoes so that they can roast evenly.
  • Stir the potatoes occasionally: This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from sticking to the pan.
  • Serve the potatoes hot: Roasted potatoes are best served immediately out of the oven, while they are still crispy.

Conclusion:

Rainbow potato roast is a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for any occasion. With its vibrant colors and delicious flavor, it is sure to be a hit with everyone at your table. So next time you're looking for a new way to prepare potatoes, give rainbow potato roast a try!
