well I was hungry tonight and needed to make some dinner as the wife was working late.
I went with this old favorite and it was amazing as always
The Best Red Potatoes
Prep time: 30 minutes
Cook time: 45 minutes
Ingredients:
1lb red potatoes
2 Tablespoons olive oil
5 cloves garlic, sliced thinly
3/4 teaspoon salt
Diced chives(optional)
and here is how to prepare them!
Wash the red potatoes thoroughly but keep the skin on.
Cut the potatoes into halves or quarters depending how big they are into bite-sized wedges.
Soak the wedges in hot water for 20-30 minutes
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
Drain the potatoes from the water but don’t dry them. Toss with the olive oil, garlic, and salt until evenly covered.
Lay the potatoes out on a roasting tray and roast for 45 minutes or until the potatoes have started to brown and wrinkle.
Remove from the oven and serve hot. Garnish with chives if desired
I always cook these with scrambled eggs and cheese and a few splashes of Franks extra hot. Bacon if you got the time. it's amazing. here is my picture. I know I suck at photography lol.
Fresh from the garden but any old red potato's will do (biggest red potato's ever for me lol. great potato's) that shoe is a 10.5 inch shoe for size reference lol.
