Ingredients
- 900 g Baby potatoes
- 3 tbsp Olive oil
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tsp Fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 tsp Dried oregano
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 50 g Grated Parmesan cheese
- 150 g Cherry tomatoes, halved
- 4 sheets Aluminum foil
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
Step 2
Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly and pat them dry. If any potatoes are larger than bite-size, cut them in half.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, combine the potatoes, olive oil, minced garlic, rosemary, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Toss well to coat the potatoes evenly with the seasonings.
Step 4
Tear off four large sheets of aluminum foil, each approximately 12 inches by 12 inches.
Step 5
Divide the seasoned potatoes evenly among the four sheets. Add a handful of halved cherry tomatoes and sprinkle about 12-13 grams of grated Parmesan cheese over each portion.
Step 6
Fold each foil sheet tightly to create a sealed pouch, ensuring no steam will escape during cooking.
Step 7
Place the pouches on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender.
Step 8
Once cooked, carefully open the pouches (watch out for steam!) and serve immediately. Optionally, garnish with additional Parmesan cheese or chopped fresh parsley.
