How to make extra oven roasted garlic rosemary cripsy potatoes
Wash, then peel the skin off the potatoes. Then cut them into chunks, I like to cut the potatoes at an angle as this ensures more of a flat surface, which results in extra crispiness!! Next, add the potatoes into a pot filled with cold water and salt. This is the only chance we have to salt the inside of the potatoes so make sure you use the whole 1 tbsp!
Bring the water to a boil, and once it starts boiling start your timer for 7 minutes.
While the potatoes are boiling, make the rosemary garlic-infused olive oil. Add rosemary, garlic cloves, and olive oil into a small saucepan and cook for 3-5 minutes. Set aside until needed.
The potatoes may take 7 minutes, or a little more, just keep an eye on them and once they’re 90% cooked, drain the water. Once the waters drained, give the colander a shake to fluff up the edges.
Transfer potatoes onto a baking sheet and make sure none are overlapping each other. Using a sieve, drain the olive oil over the potatoes. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Gently toss together, flip the potatoes faced down on the side with the most surface.
Bake for 20 minutes, flip potatoes and bake for another 30 minutes or until crispy.
Plate roasties, then sprinkle with a little sea salt and freshly chopped rosemary.
Enjoy warm!
