• Garlic, Rosemary – Adding whole garlic and rosemary sprig helps in avoiding burning. Don’t cut and insert.
• herbs – If you have access to fresh herbs, you can use thyme or parsley to make the seasoning, it adds a great flavor.
• important tips – Roasted potatoes are even better if kept with the cut side down. The bottom will get a more golden crust so don’t miss this step.
• baking tray – You can also put the potatoes directly in the tray but cleanup can be difficult so I always line with parchment paper or foil.

Serve it hot as a snack or starter. You can also serve as a side dish. It keeps well in the fridge for about 3 days but roasted potatoes taste best right out of the oven. If from the fridge, you can reheat it to crisp it up before serving.
