2 tablespoonsolive oil

3 sprigsfresh rosemary

Instructions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

Step 2

Place the potato chunks in a large pot of salted water and bring to a boil. Cook for about 5 minutes until the potatoes are slightly tender but still firm. Drain the potatoes well.

Step 3

Place the drained potatoes on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or aluminum foil.

Step 4

Drizzle the potatoes with olive oil, making sure each piece is coated evenly. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper to taste.

Step 5

Remove the leaves from the rosemary sprigs and scatter them over the potatoes.

Step 6

Toss the potatoes gently to ensure they are well coated with the oil, salt, pepper, and rosemary.

Step 7

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

Step 8

Roast the potatoes in the preheated oven for about 30-35 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside, and soft on the inside. Flip the potatoes halfway through cooking for even browning.

Step 9

Once cooked, remove the roasted potatoes from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.

Step 10

Serve the roasted potatoes as a side dish with your favorite main course.
