Ingredients

• 900 grams Baby potatoes
• 2 large Red onions
• 60 milliliters Balsamic vinegar
• 45 milliliters Olive oil
• 3 medium Garlic cloves
• 2 sprigs Fresh rosemary
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
• 15 milliliters Honey

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

Step 2

Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly and cut them in half. If they are larger, quarter them to ensure uniform size for even roasting.

Step 3

Peel the red onions and slice them into thick wedges (about 6-8 wedges per onion).

Step 4

Mince the garlic cloves finely and remove the rosemary leaves from their stems. Chop the rosemary leaves roughly.

Step 5

In a large mixing bowl, combine the balsamic vinegar, olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, honey, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to form the marinade.

Step 6

Add the baby potatoes and sliced onions to the bowl and toss thoroughly, ensuring they are evenly coated with the marinade.

Step 7

Spread the potatoes and onions in an even layer on the prepared baking sheet. Avoid overcrowding to allow proper roasting.

Step 8

Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 20 minutes.

Step 9

After 20 minutes, remove the baking sheet from the oven and toss the vegetables gently to ensure even cooking. Return to the oven for an additional 20 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden and tender, and the onions are caramelized.

Step 10

Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the dish cool for 5 minutes. Serve warm as a side dish or as a hearty vegetarian main.
