Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 pounds potatoes (Yukon Gold or red potatoes) These provide a nice creamy interior and hold their shape well.
  • 1/4 cup olive oil Use Halal-certified olive oil.
  • 1 teaspoon salt Adjust to taste.
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary Optional but adds great flavor.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Wash and chop the potatoes into bite-sized cubes (about 1 to 1.5 inches) for even cooking.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, toss the potato cubes with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and rosemary until well-coated.
  4. Transfer the seasoned potatoes onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spreading them out in a single layer.
Cooking
  1. Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast the potatoes for 30-40 minutes, flipping halfway through.
  2. Check for doneness; potatoes should be golden brown and crispy outside, fork-tender inside.
Serving
  1. Let them cool for a minute before serving. Enjoy your delightful Oven Roasted Potatoes!

Notes

For best results, use a variety of potatoes for different textures. Drying potatoes thoroughly before adding oil promotes crispiness. Try different spices for variations!
