Cheesy Roasted Potatoes (Print-Friendly Version)

Baby potatoes seasoned with herbs and parmesan, then baked to crispy, golden perfection.

# Ingredients:

→ Base

01 - 1 pound small golden potatoes
02 - 1/3 cup Parmesan cheese, finely shredded
03 - 3 tablespoons butter, unsalted
04 - 2 cloves garlic, minced

→ Seasonings

05 - 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes, optional
06 - 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
07 - 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
08 - 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
09 - 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
10 - 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley
11 - 1/2 teaspoon sea salt

# Steps:

01 - Turn the oven up to 400°F. Rinse the potatoes thoroughly, then boil them for 8-10 minutes with a little salt until they soften a bit.
02 - Mix the butter (melted), minced garlic, all your seasoning ingredients, and Parmesan in a baking dish until it comes together like a paste.
03 - Cut the boiled and cooled potatoes in half lengthwise. Press the flat side into the Parmesan mixture in the baking dish.
04 - Use a brush to spread butter on the tops of the potato halves. Sprinkle some extra Parmesan cheese if you like. Bake 25-30 minutes until they crisp up and turn golden.

# Notes:

01 - Don't peel the potatoes; the skins add texture.
02 - Let the dish cool for 5 minutes before serving.
03 - It tastes best hot and fresh out of the oven.
