Oven-Roasted Potatoes Recipe

A fool-proof recipe! Crisp on the outside and fluffy on the inside, roasted potatoes are a simple, easy side dish that goes with pretty much any meal! From roast chicken to a great steak! Feel free to get creative with seasonings: Add your favorite seasonings based on what’s in your spice cupboard or what herbs are growing in your garden!

  • Feel free to adapt the amount of garlic used in this recipe.
  • If you don’t like parsley, you can use fresh chopped rosemary or thyme. Dried herbs would work just as well but go easy because they can overpower the flavor of the potatoes.
  • Roasting potatoes in a hot, preheated oven set at a high heat gives you the best, crispy results with melt-in-your-mouth fluffy interiors.

How to roast potatoes

Making oven-roasted potatoes tossed with Parmesan is so incredibly simple that it’s our go-to side dish!

  • The first step to making great oven-roasted potatoes is choosing the right potato variety. Use baby red potatoes or mix with small Yukon golds. German butterballs or fingerling potatoes would also be a good choice.
  • Next, preheat the oven to a very hot temperature – 400º F (200°C).
  • Wash potatoes and chop your potatoes into similar-sized pieces – we like them quartered or halved if the baby potatoes are already small. This step is crucial to ensure even cooking.
  • Parboil potatoes in boiling water for 5 to 8 minutes to precook them. They’ll be more tender on the inside when roasting.
  • To guarantee an even distribution of flavor, mix the seasoning together with butter and freshly grated parmesan before tossing in your potatoes. Toss the potatoes in the parmesan mixture evenly.
  • Transfer the potatoes to a sheet pan and spread them out into 1 layer. Roast in the oven for 40 minutes to 1 hour or until browned and crisp. Flip once or twice with a spatula during cooking in order to ensure even browning.

What temperature to roast potatoes

As we said earlier, roast potatoes at least 400°F (200°C) for the best, golden results. Depending on how busy you are in the kitchen, you can cook potatoes at a lower temperature if necessary – but you may need a longer roasting time. This leads us to…

How long to roast potatoes

For crispy roast potatoes on the outside, roast them at a higher temperature for the best, golden results: normally at 400°F (200°C) for 40 minutes to 1 hour, while turning them a couple of times to ensure they crisp up all over. Garlic and parmesan will stick to the potato flesh and give that crisp golden crust. If you need more time, roast at 350ºF (180ºC) for 1 hour to 1:20 hour.

Directions

How To Roast Potatoes withGarlic Butter Parmesan

1.Preheat your oven to 400ºF (200°C) and place a rack at the bottom.

2. Wash the potatoes and then slice them in quarter

3. Grease a large baking sheet with non-stick spray or olive oil and set aside.

4. Parboil baby red potatoes in boiling water for 5 to 8 minutes to precook them. The potatoes will be more tender on the inside when roasting.

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

6. Toss parboiled potatoes through the garlic parmesan mixture to evenly coat.

7. Arrange the potatoes on the prepared baking sheet, cut side down, and in a single layer.

8. Roast the potatoesfor 25 minutes, turning after 15 minutes with tongs or a spatula, until potatoes are browned and crisped at the edges.

9. In the meantime, gently melt butter in the microwave and combine with fresh chopped parsley. Remove the roasted potatoes from the oven, and drizzle with the butter parsley sauce. Add bacon bits, and toss to coat well.

10. Serve your roastedpotatoes with garlic butter and parmesanimmediately. Enjoy! ❤️

Roasted potatoes tips

  • For extra golden potatoes, youcan broil the potatoes for 2-4 minutes after roasting.
  • Parboiling potatoes is optional, if you want to skip this step, just roast potatoes for 35 – 40 minutes.
  • Allow the potatoes to cool down for a couple of minutes on the bakingsheet before removing them. This will ensure parmesan sticks to the potatoes, not on the baking sheet surface.
  • The best part is when you pour the melted butter with parsley over the roasted potatoes. Do not skimp on this!

What to serve with roasted potatoes

Meat, poultry, and even fish – anything goes great with these crispy, garlicky potatoes!

  • Instant Pot Pork Chops in Creamy Mushroom Sauce
  • Oven-Baked Chicken Bites
  • Tuscan Baked Chicken
  • or a perfect Creamy Garlic Tuscan Salmon With Spinach and Sun-Dried Tomatoes

What to do with leftover potatoes

You can keep leftover roasted potatoes for 2 days in an airtight container in your fridge. Reheat in the oven, until heated through. You can cover the potatoes with foil to avoid drying up.

These roasted potatoes leftovers will be great in a potato salad, or as a topping in your soups and stews.

    HELP!!! I was multitasking and poured the butter mixture in before cooking! Will they still come out ok?

    Easily the best potato recipe on the internet. I've tried so many and been let down every single time, until now. This one is a winner. Packed with flavor, perfectly cooked potatoes, and just delicious. Even our picky potato hating teen asked for seconds

    These potatoes are absolute perfection. At first I thought it was too over seasoned, but I was wrong. Followed the directions exactly and they turned out so good! There were no leftovers, which means the family liked them as well. I was told I'd have to make these again, which I definitely will!!

  • Charisse

    These are amazing....I added some chopped onions when I mixed and I didn't need the bacon....soooooo delicious 😋

    Amazing recipe, thank you! Sidenote, I used yellow potatoes for this, and they came out amazing as well!! Extremely soft and tasty! Thanks again!

    These potatoes are out of this world good. We had no leftovers!! Thank you for a terrific recipe. I like to make things ahead so I can enjoy time with friends when they come over---I did cut the potatoes ahead and place in a ziplock bag & coated with olive oil, fresh garlic & seasonings/some parsley & put in the fridge for a few hours prior to roasting-- I added the parmesan right before baking-- I've made this without the parmesan and was still wonderful. It worked wonderfully to prep ahead, I just squeezed as much air from the bag as possible. Yummmmy recipe. Thank you for sharing it.

    Potatoes turned out great. Husband and I both loved them. Only problem I had was they were still hot from parboiling when I tossed with Parmesan mixture. Parmesan was melting into a disintegrated mess. Ended up tasting great but they probably are better when they are tossed correctly with the Parmesan. I don’t know how others have done it, it seems like it should be an easy fix. Where did I go wrong?

  • Will

    2022-06-28 11:52:59

    To those who love the crispness, It's important to note that the main way you achieve this from tossing is actually to like, really, really toss them thoroughly. The recipe/article doesn't bother to mention this but while yes, you're tossing to coat Iin Ingredients, but it also breaks down the starch, which eventually turns into somewhat of a liquid/paste (you want that) that should coat all the potatoes. THAT is actually what will fry and turn the outside of the potatoes crispy when cooked.

    I’m not one to leave many reviews, but I just had to. These potatoes are so freakin good! I didn’t even add the bacon (really don’t need to). They are so easy and flavorful. My picky eater husband said yeah make them again. Twice this week! Thanks for a winner recipe.

  • Beth

    2022-01-28 13:40:44

    I made them for a group last week.. and I’ve never seen anyone before picking at the potatoes ..even when the meal was finished..(one told me that she usually doesn’t like potatoes..but she also was picking at them all evening long! Thank you! I certainly will be making this again!

Roasted Garlic Butter Parmesan Potatoes (2024)

FAQs

Should you boil potatoes before roasting? ›

Do I have to boil potatoes before roasting? Not necessary but this can help get the perfect consistency and crispiness. Make sure you boil them but leave them a bit al dente and they will crisp up perfectly in the oven.

Why do you soak potatoes before roasting? ›

Soaking potatoes in water helps remove excess starch. Excess starch can inhibit the potatoes from cooking evenly as well as creating a gummy or sticky texture on the outside of your potatoes. Cold water is used because hot water would react with the starch activating it, making it harder to separate from the potatoes.

How does Gordon Ramsay make perfect roast potatoes? ›

In a video online, Gordon explained: “For crispy roast potatoes, you can depend on them, my tip is to parboil them, leave them to steam dry, then sprinkle them with semolina or flour, and then give them a good roughing up.”

How do you keep garlic from burning when roasting potatoes? ›

How do you keep garlic from burning when roasting potatoes? I find crushing the garlic and tossing it with the oil and mustard helps prevent it from burning. If you find your garlic burns easily when roasting, you can always chop the garlic cloves into larger chunks!

What is the best oil for roasting potatoes? ›

Neutral, low-cost oil such as vegetable oil, canola oil, safflower oil, peanut oil, corn oil, coconut oil, avocado oil, etc., work well for roasting. These oils have a high smoke point, allowing the potatoes to get very hot to achieve maximum crispiness.

Why don't my roast potatoes go crispy? ›

For the best result, you want to choose a starchy potato like Russets that will get a crunchy, crispy outside and fluffy, creamy inside when roasted. Other potatoes like Yukon Gold or red potatoes tend to have a softer skin when cooked, which might not crisp up the way you intend.

What happens if you don't soak potatoes before cooking? ›

The reason is to prevent the potatoes exposure to air, which causes dehydration, oxidation, and discoloration. Immersing cut potatoes will also help rinse off excess starch.

Should you roast potatoes on foil or parchment paper? ›

Use parchment paper– non stick foil, or baking sheets will not do the trick. Parchment paper allows the potatoes to roast without sticking!

Should you rinse starch off potatoes before roasting? ›

Rinsing or soaking the potatoes for an hour (or, even better, overnight) will remove some of the starch from the surface and prevent the sugars from browning before the potatoes are cooked.

How do most restaurants bake potatoes? ›

How to cook How to Make Restaurant Style Baked Potatoes
  1. Preheat the oven to 425.
  2. Wash the potatoes.
  3. Drizzle with oil and rub until fully coated.
  4. Season with the salt, pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder.
  5. Place on baking sheet and cook for 45 minutes.
  6. Cut a slit into the top of the potato.

How do restaurants prepare roast potatoes? ›

  1. Many restaurants pre-cook their potatoes partially. This could be by baking, microwaving, or even boiling them until they're almost done.
  2. When you order, they finish them off in a hot oven to get a crispy skin and ensure they're piping hot throughout.
Jan 6, 2022

What oil does Gordon Ramsay use for roast potatoes? ›

For Gordon's roast potato recipe you'll need: 1.2kg floury potatoes, such as Maris Piper or King Edward. 100g goose or duck fat (or olive oil) 2 tbsp semolina.

Should you parboil potatoes before roasting? ›

Parboil for perfection

Boiling your potatoes for a little bit before roasting helps make sure that you get that beautiful crisp crust on the outside. If you don't parboil your spuds, the outside skin will remain quite tough, meaning that whatever fat you use will not be able to get inside the cracks.

How do you prevent botulism in roasted garlic? ›

Research performed by the University of Georgia confirmed that mixtures of garlic in oil stored at room temperature are at risk for the development of botulism. Garlic in oil should be made fresh and stored in the refrigerator at 40 °F or lower for no more than 7 days. It may be frozen for several months.

How to infuse flavor into potatoes? ›

Add some garlic cloves in the water that you are boiling the potatoes. Drain the potatoes and cut into bite sized pieces. Melt some butter in a saucepan and add the potatoes with salt & pepper, some thyme and parsley. Stir and mix.

How long should you parboil potatoes for? ›

A general rule of thumb is to parboil potatoes until they are fork-tender but not falling apart, this can range anywhere from 15 minutes for small potatoes to 25-30 minutes for large whole potatoes.

When baking potatoes do you boil them first? ›

You don't need to, but if you like really crispy potatoes, there's a method that requires a few minutes of pre-cooking. Basically, you put the potatoes into already boiling water for a few minutes to soften up the outside.

How to keep roast potatoes crispy? ›

How do you keep roast potatoes warm and crispy? Don't. Let them cool. Just before you need to serve them (5–10 minutes, depending on how cool they are) put them in a hot oven, That should crisp them up nicely, and warm them too.

How long can you leave boiled potatoes before roasting? ›

Boil them the day before or up to five days before, so they completely dry out and absorb the fat better. Once they are cooked, drain them thoroughly, then leave them on a cooling rack so that they can fully dry out on all sides. Refridgerating them overnight is a bonus.
