Cheesy, Garlicky, crispy roasted potatoes hot from the oven – completes the perfect brunch!
A great roasted potato side dish made with herbs and garlic. They are baked in a hot oven for 30 minutes or so until lightly browned, crisp on the outside and tender inside, almost like a potato chip, and I know how you all like potato chips 😀 The seasoning is simple too but works wonders. Do you know how to get them perfectly crisp, every time? 😉 ! Here it is!
I made this for my brunch today with chocolate hazelnut crepe and tea. These were my favorite part of the meal. I could seriously eat the entire batch. Actually when I came to Montreal before 6 years, I was not a brunch person at all. But for the past one year, I am starting to love it. The only problem is I have very less places to go for brunch 😉 because I am a vegetarian. Otherwise there are so many brunch places here and I always love going there somehow. The best parts I love in my brunch meal are the Potatoes and the milkshakes! 😀 Whenever I order some pancakes, crepes, waffle or anything sweet, I need my Potatoes as my side. I love to have potatoes in the morning. I am planning to make brunch menu ideas from now on. I realized that I have very less brunch ideas.
Potatoes! Baked potatoes, Mashed potatoes, potato casseroles, hash browns and so on! Seriously, I have not tried a potato recipe that I didn’t like. The least I like are the French fries. These yummy roasted finger-licking potatoes are crispy, spicy and healthy too. Over roasted potatoes are much healthier than French fries. There are lots of ways to make oven-roasted potatoes. This is my personal favourite. 🙂
Vegan Note: avoid parmesan cheese! 🙂

- Take a baking sheet and place the tossed potatoes and onions separately. Bake at 450ËšF.
- I removed the onions after 15 mins and the potatoes after 35 mins until the potatoes are cooked through, browned and crispy.
