Ingredients

  • 1.5 pounds baby potatoes (mixed colors preferred)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped
  • 1/2 tablespoon dried or fresh thyme
  • 1 tablespoon fresh sage, finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil (extra virgin preferred)
  • Salt, to taste
  • 1 teaspoon red chili flakes (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
  2. Wash and dry baby potatoes thoroughly. Pat them completely dry to ensure crisp roasting.
  3. Place potatoes in a large mixing bowl. Add olive oil, lemon juice, rosemary, thyme, sage, salt, and chili flakes (if using).
  4. Toss well until the potatoes are evenly coated with herbs and seasoning.
  5. Spread potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet without overcrowding.
  6. Roast for 30–35 minutes, turning once halfway through, until potatoes are golden brown and fork-tender.
  7. Remove from oven and let rest for a few minutes. Serve warm.

Notes

  • Dry potatoes thoroughly before roasting for crispier texture.
  • Cut larger potatoes in half for even cooking.
  • Use dried herbs in place of fresh—reduce quantity by half.
  • Add whole garlic cloves or minced garlic before roasting for extra depth.
  • Toss with melted butter after roasting for a richer finish.
