Ingredients

• 500 grams New potatoes
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 pieces Garlic cloves (minced)
• 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
• 1 tablespoon Fresh rosemary leaves (finely chopped)
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper (freshly ground)
• 1 tablespoon Parsley (finely chopped, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.

Step 2

Wash the new potatoes thoroughly and pat them dry. If the potatoes are larger than bite-sized, cut them in halves or quarters to ensure even roasting.

Step 3

In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, fresh lemon juice, lemon zest, chopped rosemary, salt, and black pepper.

Step 4

Add the potatoes to the bowl and toss well to coat them evenly with the lemon mixture.

Step 5

Spread the coated potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded for better roasting.

Step 6

Roast in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, flipping the potatoes halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside while tender on the inside.

Step 7

Remove the potatoes from the oven and transfer them to a serving dish.

Step 8

Sprinkle the roasted potatoes with freshly chopped parsley for garnish. Serve hot and enjoy!
