These fool-proof crispy rosemary garlic roast potatoes make the perfect side for Sunday roast, Christmas dinner or Thanksgiving. These potatoes are boiled and then roasted with a rosemary garlic-infused olive oil. Make these bad boys and be gifted with ultra-crispy exterior roasties, with fluffy insides.
boiling Boiling: 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. Bring the water to a boil, and once it starts boiling start your timer for 7 minutes.
cook Rosemary garlic infused oil: 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 over medium heat. Set aside until needed.
roasting Roasting: 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 Bake for 20 minutes, flip potatoes and bake for another 30 minutes or until crispy.
eat Plate roasties, then sprinkle with a little sea salt and freshly chopped rosemary. Enjoy warm.
