Preparation:
Cook:
Level: Easy
Serves: 5
Ingredients
- 1 kilogram Potatoes, cut into 1-inch-thick cubes
- 3 tablespoons Vegetable oil or as needed
- Salt and pepper
- 1-½ tbsp Finely chopped fresh rosemary
Preparation
Preheat the oven to 200°C (390°F).
Get a pot of salted water. Add the potatoes, bring the water to a boil and boil the potatoes for about 4-5 minutes. Drain.
Preheat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add about 1-2 tablespoons of oil. Add the potatoes and sauté for about 2 minutes, stirring occasionally. (If you need to fry potatoes in several batches, please do so.)
Once the potatoes are lightly browned and have developed an outer layer, transfer the potatoes to a large bowl. Add a pinch of salt, pepper, rosemary and if you think the potatoes could use a little more oil, add a light drizzle.
Transfer the potatoes to a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Make sure the potatoes are in a single layer with space around each piece. Place in the oven and roast for 40 to 45 minutes. Serve as soon as they are cooked.
