Yield: 4 Servings
Measure | Ingredient |
---|---|
20 smalls | Red potatoes or new potatoes |
½ cup | Oil; clarified butter, bacon fat or animal fat |
1 tablespoon | Rosemary; basil or oregano |
\N \N | Salt |
\N \N | Black pepper |
Heat oven to 400°F. Scrub potatoes clean, remove any eyes and cut in half.
Place potatoes in a baking dish and pour oil or melted fat over them, toss to coat. Bake for 15 minutes, turn, bake for 10 minutes, sprinkle with herb of your choice, toss to coat and bake for another 10 minutes. Test with a fork to make sure it glides through. Season with salt and pepper to your taste.
NOTES : Small red potatoes roasted in olive oil with herbs. You can roast these whole if you prefer, just add more time to your baking time. Cutting them in half enables a tasty golden crust to form on the cut side.
