Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Grease a large baking sheet with non stick spray or olive oil and set aside.

Step 2

In a bowl combine 1/4 cup of olive oil, garlic, salt, herbs, pepper, and parmesan cheese together, mixing to combine. Add the remaining oil if the parmesan cheese has absorbed most of it.

Step 3

Toss potatoes through the mixture to evenly coat.

Step 4

arrange coated potatoes in a single layer onto prepared baking sheet. Spread them out and bake 45 - 50 minutes carefully turning every 15 minutes or so with tongs or with a spatula, until potatoes are browned nd edges are crisp. For extra crispy potatoes , broil (or girll) for 2 - 4 minutes, or until browned to your liking While potatoes are in the oven brown your butter.

Step 5

Melt 1/3 cup of butter in a small pot or skillet over medium heat. (stir the butter continuously and swirl the pan occasionally to allow the butter to cook evenly and prevent too much splattering

Step 6

When it begins to foam the color will change from yellow to tan to a rich golden brown color. As soon as you smell a nutty aroma, take the pan off the heat. Give it a light mix with a wooden spoon to lift up any browned bits on the base of your pan pour over the roasted potatoes .

Step 7

Season with a little extra salt and pepper (if desired) and sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving.
