What's in This Roasted Potatoes?
A handful of spices and baby potatoes are all you need for these delicious and super easy to prepare roasted potatoes. I can go for a large bowl of potatoes as a meal any day. These are truly very satisfying.
- Red & Gold Potatoes: I love using a mixture of baby gold and red potatoes for this recipe. The softer and sweet texture of gold potatoes and the thick and crunchy skin of red potatoes gives great texture to this recipe. Use either or both, the choice is yours.
- Garlic & Parsley: Garlic and potatoes go so well together. My family and I love a good combination of lots of garlic and parsley for this recipe. However, I have made these potatoes with spring onions, chives, fresh rosemary, and cilantro. They equally taste great!
- Coriander Seeds: absolutely love the beautiful aroma of coriander seeds in this recipe. I developed this recipe based on coriander seeds as a main ingredient. I do not recommend any substitute for coriander seeds.

How to Make Roasted Potatoes
Through many years of roasting these potatoes in the oven with trials and failure, I have come to the conclusion that parboiling the potatoes before roasting them is the best practice to achieve that golden brown color with crispy skin.
Parboiling the potatoes first then roasting them or Sautéing in oil on high heat is the only way to make the best potatoes.
Step By Step Instructions
- Wash and clean about 3 pounds of potatoes and parboil them in boiling water & salt for 6 to 8 minutes.
- Transfer the potatoes into a large bowl of cold water for a minute or two then pat dry them. Cut them into halves or quarters & season them with a generous drizzle of oil and salt to taste.
- Transfer the potatoes to a sheet pan and spread them out into 1 layer. Roast in the oven for 25 to 40 minutes or until golden-brown and crispy. Flip with a spatula during cooking to achieve even browning. Remove the potatoes from the oven and set them aside.
- Chop parsley and garlic in a chopper and coarsely grind the coriander seeds in a Mortar and Pestle.
- Heat olive oil in a wok or a large skillet. Add coriander seeds, parsley and garlic. Sautee until fragrant for about 30 seconds to 1 minute. Add roasted potatoes, season with salt and pepper.
- Toss until well combined. Serve it hot or warm with a drizzle of lemon juice.
