Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Step 2
Begin by washing the golden potatoes thoroughly under cold water to remove any dirt. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.

Roll each potato in the olive oil mixture ensuring they are thoroughly coated.
Step 6
Place the potatoes on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easier cleanup.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes or until the potatoes are golden brown and a fork can be easily inserted into the center.
Step 8
Once baked, remove the potatoes from the oven and allow them to cool for a few minutes before serving.
Step 9
Serve the baked golden potatoes as a delicious side, garnished with a sprinkle of additional rosemary or your choice of toppings like sour cream or cheese.
