Roasted Potatoes with Garlic

By HomeCookin

While it's not essential, use your oven's convection setting, if you have it.

Ingredients

• 3 pounds small red or white potatoes
• 1/4 cup good olive oil
• 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
• 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 2 tablespoons roughly chopped garlic (6 cloves)
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. (375 for convection cooking)
Cut the potatoes in half or quarters and place in a bowl with the olive oil, salt, pepper, rosemary and garlic; toss until the potatoes are well coated. Transfer the potatoes to a sheet pan and spread out into 1 layer. Roast in the oven for 40 minutes, then check regularly until browned and crisp. Flip twice with a spatula during cooking in order to ensure even browning.
Remove the potatoes from the oven, season to taste, and serve hot.

For convection cooking, initally check potatoes at 30 minutes, then check regularly until done.
