Herby, Roasted New Potatoes

June 1, 2011 By Sandy

Herby Roasted New Potatoes

I have not put any quantities for this recipe, as it depends very much on how many potatoes you like to eat!

New potatoes
Sunflower oil
Salt
Pepper
Fresh or dried herbs (I use fresh and a mixture of thyme, oregano, savoury, rosemary, but you can use what you like. If you use dried, do not use too much as their flavour can be quite intense)

  1. Preheat the oven to 180C / 350F / Gas 4. If the oven is already on, the temperature can be flexible. You may need to alter the time. If the oven is below 150C / 300F / Gas 2, then the potatoes will not crispen up.
  2. Boil the potatoes in salted water until they are almost cooked. (You can use left over cooked potatoes, and they will be just as tasty, go to stage 4 if using cooked new potatoes).
  3. Drain the potatoes and allow them to dry in their own heat.
  4. Cut them if necessary so they are all a similar size. Place in a bowl
  5. Toss the potatoes in sunflower oil so they are just coated. Now sprinkle with salt and herbs (I use about 1 tbs of fresh herbs for 2 people), mix well.
  6. Place potatoes into a roasting dish and then into the oven.
  7. Roast for 40 + minutes until golden and crispy.
