Crispy Rosemary Baby Potatoes

Story

These little spuds transform into something special with just a few pantry staples. The boiling step ensures fluffy interiors, while the high-heat roasting creates that irresistible crispy exterior.

Ingredients

baby potatoes 500g
olive oil 3 tablespoons
salt 1 teaspoon, divided
freshly ground black pepper ½ teaspoon
dried rosemary 1 teaspoon
chili powder ½ teaspoon

Instructions

1

Boil the potatoes

Rinse the baby potatoes well. Place them in a pot, cover with cold water, add half the salt, and bring to a gentle boil. Cook for about 10 minutes until they start to soften but aren't fully cooked through.

2

Season and coat

Drain the potatoes and let them sit until most moisture evaporates. Transfer to a large bowl. Drizzle with olive oil, then sprinkle the remaining salt, black pepper, rosemary, and chili powder. Toss everything together until the potatoes are evenly coated.

3

Roast to perfection

Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Arrange the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on a baking tray. Roast for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the skins are crispy and golden brown.
