Roasted Red Potatoes

02:34PM / Wednesday January 26, 2011

Roasting is such an easy and delicious cooking method. Typically the winter months are better for this method because it helps heat up your home. There is nothing better than making a delicious meal that makes your home feel and smell homey. And for some reason when I think about red potatoes, I always think of parsley as a flavor pair. There is something about the richness of the potatoes along with the grass-y-ness of the parsley that goes so well to me.

In order to roast anything you must preheat your oven to a fairly high temp. In this case I was cooking Cod at the same time so I figured that they both could cook at about 425 degrees. I bought these cute little red potatoes, so I only had to cut them in half, if your potatoes are a little larger than quarter them. (of course this is after you have washed them) Place them on a sheet pan, and drizzle them with olive oil, salt and pepper. Place them in the preheated oven and cook them for about 35-40 minutes, or until they are browned. Once you pull them out of the oven, sprinkle them with some parsley and a little more salt and pepper to taste. Serve.
