Ingredients
- 2 pounds baby potatoes
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves
- 3 whole, minced garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 tablespoons parmesan cheese (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
Step 2
Wash and dry the baby potatoes. Cut them in half if they are large; leave smaller potatoes whole for even cooking.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, combine the potatoes, olive oil, thyme leaves, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Toss until the potatoes are evenly coated.
Step 4
Spread the coated potatoes out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, with the cut sides facing down for maximum crispiness.
Step 5
Roast the potatoes in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, flipping them halfway through cooking to ensure even browning.
Step 6
Once the potatoes are golden brown and crispy, remove them from the oven. If desired, sprinkle with freshly grated parmesan cheese for added flavor.
Step 7
Transfer the roasted potatoes to a serving bowl and garnish with a few extra sprigs of thyme. Serve hot and enjoy!
