🥔 Crispy Garlic Parmesan Roasted Potatoes
🧾 Ingredients
800g–1 kg potatoes (Yukon Gold or regular)
3–4 tbsp olive oil
4 cloves garlic (minced)
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 tsp salt
½ tsp black pepper
1 tsp paprika (optional, for color & flavor)
1 tsp dried oregano or Italian seasoning
Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
👨🍳 Instructions
Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F).
Prep potatoes
Wash and cut into halves or quarters (keep skin on for extra crisp).
Boil briefly (secret step!)
Boil potatoes in salted water for 7–8 minutes
Drain and let them steam dry (this helps crispiness)
Season
Toss potatoes with:
Olive oil
Garlic
Salt, pepper, paprika, herbs
Add Parmesan magic
Sprinkle Parmesan directly on the baking tray
Place potatoes cut-side down on top (this creates a crispy cheesy crust)
Roast
Bake for 35–45 minutes
Flip once halfway through
Cook until golden, crispy, and irresistible
Finish
Sprinkle with parsley
Serve hot
🔥 Why this hits different
Boiling + roasting = fluffy inside, crispy outside
Parmesan forms a crunchy crust
Garlic + oil soak into every bite
