🍽 Ingredients
📖 Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). This is crucial for perfectly crispy potatoes. Don't skip this step!
- Wash and dry your fingerling potatoes thoroughly. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel. Excess moisture is the enemy of crispy potatoes!
- In a large bowl, toss the potatoes with 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Make sure each potato is nicely coated. We're aiming for even browning!
- Now, for the flavor explosion: Add 1 tablespoon of Herbs de Provence, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper. Gently toss to coat everything evenly.
- Spread the potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet. Don't overcrowd the pan; this will result in steaming instead of roasting. Ideally, they should have a little space between each potato.
- Roast for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through. Keep a close eye on them during the last 5-10 minutes to prevent burning. They're ready when they're golden brown and tender.
- Once cooked, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. And there you have it – perfectly roasted fingerling potatoes!
📝 Notes
- For extra flavor, consider adding a squeeze of lemon juice after roasting.
- If you like a bit of garlic, add a few cloves, minced, to the potatoes before roasting. Mmmm!
