    Crisp Parmesan potatoes

    By Jezza-Rae Larsen Serves: 4
    Total Time: 55 minutes

    Ingredients

    • 250 grams baby potatoes, cut in half
    • ¼ cup olive oil, plus extra for greasing
    • 2 garlic cloves, minced
    • 2 tbsp chopped parsley
    • 1 tsp chilli flakes
    • 2 tbsp grated Parmesan, plus extra for dipping
    • Salt and freshly ground pepper

    Instructions

    1

    PREHEAT your oven to 180ºC.

    2

    SCORE your potatoes on the cut side in diagonal slits.

    3

    COMBINE the remaining ingredients in a bowl and mix to form a paste-like consistency.

    4

    TOSS the potatoes in the olive oil mixture until evenly coated on both sides.

    5

    PLACE a heap of extra grated Parmesan on a plate and dip the cut side of the potatoes into the Parmesan for an extra crust.

    6

    LINE a baking tray with baking paper and add potatoes, cheese- side down in an even layer. Brush with any leftover olive oil mixture and bake in the oven for 30–40 min, until golden brown and crispy.

    Notes

    Regular potatoes can be used, but these will require a longer cooking time.
