Garlic & Rosemary Roasted New Potatoes

A crisp, golden side dish that pairs beautifully with roast beef. These roasted new potatoes are fragrant with garlic and rosemary, and finished with a hint of lemon for brightness.

INGREDIENTS
  • 750g new potatoes, halved if large
  • 2–3 tbsp olive oil
  • 3 garlic cloves, lightly crushed
  • 2–3 sprigs fresh rosemary
  • Flaky sea salt
  • Freshly cracked black pepper
  • ½ lemon, for squeezing
METHOD

  1. Preheat your oven to 200°C fan-assisted (210°C conventional).
  2. Place the halved new potatoes in a saucepan of salted water, bring to a boil, and cook for 6–7 minutes until just starting to soften. Drain and let steam-dry for 1–2 minutes.
  3. Tip the potatoes into a roasting tin. Add the olive oil, garlic cloves, and rosemary sprigs, then season generously with salt and pepper. Toss everything together to coat evenly.
  4. Spread the potatoes out in a single layer and roast in the oven for 30–40 minutes, turning once, until golden and crisp on the edges.
  5. Remove from the oven and drizzle with a little squeeze of lemon juice just before serving.

Hot Tips

  • Don’t skip parboiling — it helps achieve a fluffy centre and crisp edges.
  • You can roast these ahead and reheat in a hot oven for a few minutes before serving.
  • Swap rosemary for thyme or sage if you prefer.
