Rosemary Roasted Potatoes

This is an easy Italian recipe which does not take long at all. The flavor of the rosemary just can't be beat.

Roasted potatoes seasoned with rosemary (dried or fresh is fine) goes wonderful with many meat dishes. I love mine with lamb, but chicken or beef is just as acceptable.

Try this recipe when looking for a potato recipe besides the typical mashed or plain baked potato. It also good to include on your menu when hosting friends or family who are vegetarian or require gluten free foods.

Serves: 4-6

	Ingredients	Italian Name
	8 roasting potatoes (red or white)	patate
	3 crushed garlic cloves	aglio
	2 tablespoons of rosemary or 1 fresh rosemary sprig	rosmarino
	2-3 Tablespoons extra virgin olive oil (more as needed)	olio d'oliva
	salt and pepper to taste	sale e pepe

	Instructions
1.	Wash, peel and chop your potatoes into 1/2 inch size cubes.
2.	Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
3.	Pour olive oil into a baking dish and add in the rosemary and garlic.
4.	Heat in the oven while it is preheating - for about 5 minutes. Do NOT let the garlic burn. YOu just want to infuse the flavors.
5.	Meanwhile wash, peel and chop the potatoes into 1/2 inch size cubes.
6.	Place the potatoes in the baking dish and mix with the olive oil mixture.
7.	Season with a sprinkle of salt and pepper (or to taste).
8.	Bake for about 35 minutes. Give a stir half way through and bake until the potatoes begin to brown evenly.

	TIP #1: Dry or fresh rosemary works just as well as the other (unless the dried is old and lost its flavor).
	TIP #2: This is a recipe which can really be easily adjusted to taste. For example, I barely put in pepper because I don't care for black pepper and don't think this recipe really needs it. On the other hand, some people love black pepper and would prefer it with. Same with the garlic - in my video I use 2 cloves but I would recommend 3.
	TIP #3: Serve this with some meat such as chicken or beef or lamb. Here are some recipes on my site which are good meat recipes: breaded chicken breasts, lamb chops, chicken picatta.
