Ingredients

• 1.5 lbs baby potatoes
• 3 tbsp olive oil
• 6 whole garlic cloves
• 2 tbsp unsalted butter
• 1 tsp fresh rosemary
• 1 tsp salt
• 0.5 tsp black pepper, freshly ground
• 2 tbsp parsley, chopped (optional for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

Step 2

Wash and pat dry the baby potatoes. Cut each potato in half, or quarter them if they are larger, to ensure even cooking.

Step 3

In a small ramekin, combine 2 tablespoons of olive oil and the garlic cloves. Wrap the garlic cloves in aluminum foil and place them in the oven to roast for 20 minutes.

Step 4

While the garlic is roasting, toss the potatoes in a large mixing bowl with the remaining olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Spread the potatoes out in an even layer on the prepared baking sheet, cut side down.

Step 5

After 20 minutes, remove the roasted garlic from the oven and carefully unwrap the foil. Mash the garlic into a paste using the back of a fork and mix it with the softened butter and chopped rosemary.

Step 6

Remove the baking sheet from the oven after the potatoes have roasted for 25 minutes. Flip the potatoes to expose the cut sides and brush the garlic butter mixture generously over the potatoes.

Step 7

Return the potatoes to the oven and roast for an additional 15 minutes, or until golden-brown and crispy on the edges.

Step 8

Once cooked, remove the potatoes from the oven and let them rest for 2-3 minutes. Transfer them to a serving platter and garnish with chopped parsley, if desired.

Step 9

Serve warm and enjoy!
