This is a wonderfully savory dish. It really needs to be a side dish for a strong flavored meat, such as flank steak with a montreal rub. As made here, it is a side dish for 2 people at 880 calories (440 each)
1. Scrub the potatoes clean.
2. Cube into 1" cubes.
3. Heat oven to 500 degrees.
4. Put oil into casserole dish (3 qt)
5. Put on bottom shelf of 500 degree oven for 3 minutes.
6. Add potatoes, rosemary, garlic, pepper and salt. Stir to coat.
7. Put back on oven for another 35 minutes (until dark golden brown, don't burn.) Occasionally stir to break up clumps.
That looks like a wonderful recipe and great flavor potential! Should have nice, crispy edges with soft fluffy insides.
The only thing I'd modify is the following: While the oil is preheating in the oven, put the cubed potatos into a medium bowl or large plasic bag. Add 1-2 Tbs olive oil and all the spices, and shake/toss to completely coat the potatoes before adding them to the pre-heated oven dish.
i might also "finish" the potatoes with a bit of Fleur de Mar or sea salt crystals just before serving, instead of salting them before roasting. You actually use a bit less salt that way, but the flavor is more pronounced.
In any event, this sounds like a fantastic side dish!
Good Work!!
