Rosemary Roasted Potatoes

Ingredients

  • 3-4 medium potatoes
  • 1 small onion, or less
  • 2-4 cloves of garlic
  • 2-4 T. butter
  • 2-4 sprigs of fresh rosemary
  • salt & pepper, optional
  • Old Bay seasoning, optional

Directions

Melt butter in a medium bowl. Chop the onion and garlic very finely and add to butter. Remove rosemary leaves from stem and chop finely as well. Add rosemary to butter and stir everything. Use whatever type of potato (or a mix) and cut into bite size chunks. Sprinkle desired amount of salt, pepper, and Old Bay seasoning on potato pieces then add to bowl. Mix potato chunks in rosemary-garlic butter until well coated and spread in a single layer on baking sheet or roasting pan. Now comes the key to this recipe, which I developed from thekitchn.com: ROAST THEM FOR AT LEAST 45 MINUTES! You can use a spatula to flip or mix them halfway through, but don't stop short. They will look nearly burnt-crisp on the outside, and the middle will cook to a perfect fluffy mashed potato type of consistency. Imagine eating fried potato wedges and mashed potatoes combined in one bite. Pretty fuckin A, man.
