Instructions

Preheat oven

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

Pro tip: A hot oven ensures crispy potatoes.

Prepare potatoes

Wash and cut all potatoes into 1-inch pieces, ensuring they are similar in size for even roasting.

Pro tip: Leave the skin on for added texture and nutrients.

Season potatoes

In a large bowl, toss the potato pieces with olive oil, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.

Pro tip: Use your hands for the best coating.

Add herbs

Sprinkle the chopped rosemary and thyme over the potatoes and toss again to distribute the herbs evenly.

Pro tip: Fresh herbs add a more vibrant flavour than dried.

Arrange on baking sheet

Spread the potatoes out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded.

Pro tip: Overcrowding will steam the potatoes rather than roast them.

Roast potatoes

Roast in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the potatoes are golden brown and fork-tender.

Pro tip: For extra crispiness, broil for the last 2-3 minutes.
