Ingredients

5 servings

1 kg / 2 lb baby potatoes (or other small potatoes, halved (Note 1))
4 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tsp cooking/kosher salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
5 g arlic cloves with skin on (, smashed (Note 2))
5 thyme sprigs (or 3 rosemary sprigs (Note 3 for dried herbs))
Finely chopped parsley or fresh thyme ((optional))

Steps

Preheat oven to 200°C / 400°F (180°C fan).
Smashed garlic – Place side of knife on unpeeled garlic clove. Hit firmly with palm of hand so the garlic bursts open a bit but mostly stays in tact.
Toss - Put potatoes on a tray and push together. Drizzle with oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper. Toss to coat. Toss through thyme and garlic. Spread out on tray.
Roast 1 hour - Roast for 30 minutes. Toss. Roast for a further 25 to 35 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden. (Note 4 for stuck potatoes & golden TIPS!)
Serve - Sprinkle with parsley, if using, and serve immediately!
