Roast Potatoes with Garlic and Parsley
Ingredients:
1-1 1/2 pound potatoes, cut into 1-1 1/2inch cubes
Olive oil
2 – 3 garlic cloves
1/4 cup or a half handful of fresh parsley
Directions:
- Blanch the potatoes until they are just starting to turn tender. Drain.
- Pre-heat your oven to 400 degrees, and put a oven safe frying pan on the medium high heat on the stove top.
- Add olive oil to coat the bottom of the pan, once hot add the potatoes, cut sides down.
- Let the potatoes sauté for 5 – 10 minutes, or until they’ve become golden brown (do not flip until they are golden brown).
- Flip the potatoes over, and move the whole pan into the oven to finish cooking – another 5 – 10 minutes.
- Chop the parsley and garlic together with a few pinches of salt until they are finely chopped and almost a paste.
- Test the potatoes with a knife to ensure they are tender, remove from the oven and put them into a bowl.
- Drizzle a bit of olive oil over them, toss in the garlic and parsley, season with salt and pepper and toss and serve.
