Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs baby potatoes
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 3 large, minced garlic cloves
- 1 large, zested and juiced lemon
- 1 tsp ground coriander
- 0.25 cup, chopped fresh coriander (cilantro)
- 1 tsp (or to taste) salt
- 0.5 tsp (or to taste) black pepper
- 2 cups water
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
Step 2
Thoroughly wash the baby potatoes and cut any larger ones in half to ensure even cooking. Leave smaller potatoes whole.
Step 3
Bring a medium-large pot of water to a boil, adding a generous pinch of salt. Add the potatoes and parboil for 10 minutes, ensuring they are slightly softened but not fully cooked.
Step 4
Drain the potatoes and let them steam dry for 2 minutes. While the potatoes are drying, prepare the lemon-coriander mixture.
Step 5
In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice, ground coriander, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
Step 6
Toss the parboiled potatoes in the lemon-coriander marinade, ensuring each potato is evenly coated.
Step 7
Spread the coated potatoes onto the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy on the edges.
Step 8
Remove the potatoes from the oven and transfer them to a serving dish. Sprinkle with chopped fresh coriander for added freshness and aroma.
Step 9
Serve hot and enjoy these vibrant, flavorful roast potatoes as a perfect accompaniment to your main dish!
