Roasted potatoes are pretty much my life. I’ve been told that I make one mean batch of roasted potatoes, and so I feel like it’s my civic duty to share the recipe with you today. There really isn’t anything that crazy that goes into these potatoes but I guess they are pretty much like crack. People, including my boyfriend, just can’t get enough of them. I make big vats of these on the weekends so we can use them throughout the week. And without fail, they disappear by Wednesday or Thursday.
This is more a technique rather than a recipe, since you can scale these potatoes up if you’re cooking for a crowd. You could also throw in some extra herbs if your feeling the need to incorporate some thyme or rosemary or whatever you have on hand. But these potatoes that I’m about to show you, are total rock stars and always disappear at dinner parties.
You’re going to start with some naked potatoes….
Add on all the seasonings…
Using your fingers, go ahead and toss everything together….
Put them in the oven for about 30 minutes. Take them out and give them a quick toss with some tongs. Then stick them back in to the oven and let them work their magic…
Once they are nice and golden and crispy, throw them onto a serving platter….
And finally, you’ll have the best roasted parmesan potatoes ever!
| Parmesan Roasted Potatoes |
- 4 cups cubed Yukon Gold potatoes
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp garlic salt
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp pepper
- 4 tbsp Parmesan cheese
- Preheat your oven to 425 degrees.
- Place the cubed potatoes into a baking dish. (The cubes of potatoes should be about 3/4 of an inch on all sides) You can spray the baking dish with a baking spray too to eliminate anything possibly sticking
- Pile on the olive oil, garlic salt, salt, paprika, pepper and Parmesan cheese. Using your fingers, or a spoon if you feel inclined, get in to the potatoes and carefully mix everything around until the seasonings coat each potato.
- Transfer the baking dish into the oven and bake for 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and toss the potatoes with a pair of tongs. Put the baking dish back into the oven and bake for about 15 – 25 minutes more until they are golden and crispy.
- Season with an little dusting of sea salt if desired and serve.

Gaby your taters look perfect!
And I saw an adorable Instagram pic of you and a couple other people yesterday. Looks like you were all having a ball!
Missed you down here in San Diego…was hoping to hear from you!
These look WONDERFUL!
Sounds delicious…I just LOVE potatoes and these sound delicious. Recipe is printing and shopping list made. I’ll be making these this week, hopefully!
Yum!! I am a huge fan of roasted potatoes in any variety…adding cheese = yes, please!
We LOVE roasted potatoes. They do not last long in our house, either. Have you ever used smoked paprika? Insane.
Roasted potatoes are where it’s at! These sound amazing!
Gaby, I have just died. This is so fantastic I’m not sure how to even go on!
These potatoes look like a great side dish! heck I’d eat them just as my meal!
There is not much better in life than roasted potatoes and these look awesome. Thanks for sharing your secret!
Sounds amazing. I’m making these asap
oh wow, these look so good! Love the idea of making a bunch and re-heating.
Yummy. Roasted potatoes are one of my favorite foods to roast when it gets cooler. I love the addition of paprika. I may even add some cumin when I make these!
My kids now want you to be their mother. great potatoes
Yum. I would love these for breakfast!
wow these look delightful! i love that you added paprika, nice touch.
I heart potatoes. And cheese. And paprika. Win-win-win!!
SO DELICIOUS!!!!!
These look amazing!
Those look so amazing! Lovely photos, lovely recipe!
Like a blank canvas, you can prepare potatoes in an endless amount of ways! For some reason, I don’t really crave potatoes during the summer so instead, I’ve been indulging my crazy cauliflower addiction.
Oh my God, these look delicious!
These potatoes look awesome! I don’t think there will be any leftovers at our house! The paprika and parmesan are a nice touch. Great photos.
We’re potato fanatics around here. Love them any kind of way, especially roasted. We’ll be trying your recipe this weekend!
My mom used to make a version of these when I was a kid and they were always a hit. Potatoes and parm. How can you go wrong?
It’s true. These potatoes are awesome. So much flavor. So tasty. I love your technique.
Home fries!! These look so tasty!!
These look like the perfect side dish for a brunch, topped with a poached egg and some bacon on the side!
We add flavored cheese powder to the baked potato to give it a different and stronger flavor
Great photos, Gaby. Those look delicious.
We prepare the fingerling potatoes with similar seasoning in addition we use a microwave steamer bag and cook the potatoes prior, this will cut down on the bake time. If we are grilling just wrap in a foil seal edges and throw it on the grill
Good addition to a grilled meal
Perfect potatoes! these look like the easiest side dish!
Looks delish! I use a similar recipe except I sometimes add Italian seasoning or a little chilli powder as well.
I agree, potatoes are like crack to me too. Especially in the oven and when they turn out nice and crispy.
Without a doubt, I’ll be taking this recipe for a spin!
Perfect! Going to make these SOON!
Found your site using stumbleupon. So glad this recipe came up, the potatoes look amazing. I am going to make them tonight for my husband who is crazy about potatoes. Thanks so much for sharing.
So I made these the other night and they tasted really good, however, they were super salty! Did you perhaps mean 1 tsp of garlic salt instead of 1 Tbs?
I made these last night and we loved them, except they were a bit spicy for my little one, so next time I’ll halve the pepper. Also, I used garlic powder instead of garlic salt, as I thought that they might be too salty with garlic salt AND regular salt. I absolutely loved them! Thanks for the recipe!
this is yummy Gaby! great photos too, the dish looks mouth watering! thanks for sharing.
This looks amazing!
Can anyone who has actually made these potatoes write a review on how they turned out?
I made those the other night and they were awesome, I even added a little extra parm!
Great!
Looks like a great recipe. My husband is a potato fanatic so know he will bless you when I make them, down here in Aussie-land!
I cooked it yesterday and it was awsome!!!! This is my favorite potatoe recipie!
Thank you again Garby!
(I did not add 1 tsp salt just a little bit sprinkle of sea salt)
Best
Elif
I am a potato junkie, these look fantastic! Simple too! Anything with Parmesan is a winner.

So excited to try these tonight!!
awesome! i added some red onion too. i like onion with my potatoes
Mmm perfect potatoes!
Do you know how to do it with only a microwave and no oven?
StumbleUpon brought me to you and I gasped. I’m a huge potato person and this is a gorgeous dish. I love the fact that they’re roasted instead of skillet-fried. The color is beautiful and the presentation fantastic. I’m so glad I stumbled!
mine stuck to the glass casserole when I went to turn them over. I should have used pam
I made these for a weeknight dinner and my husband and i loved them! i was so bored with either baked potatoes or mashed. these were perfect. thanks for the recipe!
Looks amazing! Can’t wait to try it
I like these food
Food looks so good when your on a diet!
I really hank Stumbleupon for finding me sucha asite which best defines the potato recipe.I love potatoes.
I came across this recipe on StumbleUpon a couple of days ago and immediately made them for dinner. They are *soooo* good! I am making them again tonight, because we ran out too soon. Thank you for sharing!
Sounds super yum. How should it be reheated?
Made these last night and they were fabulous. I didn’t have any golden potatoes in the house so I used regular potatoes and it still was great. Thanks for sharing this!

The potatoes look wonderful! It’s even good when you reheat it! I topped it with cheddar cheese after reheating, even better.
I made these potatoes tonight along with some stuffed chicken parmesan, they were very easy to prepair i added a layer or grated mozerella to go with the dish they were paird with and it worked well… my wife love the whole dish I would recommend to everyday
I’m a potato whore- yep, i am!! love them!! wrote down the recipe to add to my shopping list for the morning- going to make them for dinner tomorrow night! oh, i mean with dinner
and by the way- found you through stumble 
This looked so yummy and simple to make so I had to and man was it a hit with my friends!!! I am always looking for something new to cook and show off so thank you for this gem!!!
These potatoes are absolutely delicious! The first time I made them, they were still a bit tender when I took them out! Batch two was much much better! What a perfect roasted potato recipe! I added some thyme in batch two and I must say I actually enjoyed the original recipe much more. Thank you for sharing!
Easy to cook, easy to eat & tasty as well. In India these types of dishes are known as “BHAJEES”
Bhaji (singular)
LOVEEE these! i’ve been trying out different recipes for gold potatoes, and i usually end up frying them and they arent crispy enough or have enough flavor. These are PERFECT! and EASY Definitely going to make these again
))
Mmmmmm this dish looks really yummy & easy
These looked awesome, so I made them tonight. I was disappointed that mine didn’t crisp up like yours! They were more like seasoned “mush” potatoes. What did I do wrong? Not enough olive oil?? I even cooked them for considerably longer and they just never got crispy.
I made these in my toaster oven, i only set it to like 355 because usually things cook much faster in my toaster oven, and then i ended up putting them in for about 10 minutes longer than suggested, i kept a close eye on them and took them out when i saw that they were nice and crispy. also what kind of pan did you use? maybe they werent spread out enough in your pan?
I used a heavy-duty full sized baking sheet. Maybe I overcrowded them.. its definitely worth a second go.. I am going to try again!
These look absolutely delicious. Can’t wait to give them a try and I can think of about a million things that would go very nicely with them.
These look AH-MAZING! Yum.
These turned out amaaaaaaazing! So delicious, my husband keeps asking me to make them everyday! As a healthier alternative, I’m wondering what would happen if I used sweet potatoes instead? Has any one tried this? Please let me know how they turned out!
I want to give these a try but also want to say that I bet this would be good using brussell sprouts instead of the potatoes.

Yum- this recipe looks delicious- thank you for sharing! And Happy New Year to you and your family!
I found your website through stumbleupon yesterday morning and made these to go with a surf/turf meal last night, and they were a big hit! We really can’t go wrong with any kind of grilled/roasted/mashed/smashed/baked potato in my house, and this one was impressive! Thanks for sharing!
Deliciously addicting! Yum! Served at dinner but would make a great substitute for hash browns at breakfast. One adjustment I will make for next time is stirring the potatoes before 30 minutes. They were sticking a bit at that point, even with the non-stick spray.
I like these with red potatoes. I’ve made them a lot, and they’re good. If you mix the coating in a deep bowl and then add the potatoes, it’s easier to give them a good stir to coat them with everything. Use a child-cheater* to make sure the sides are scraped and the potatoes are completely turned over. Make sure you have enough olive oil. Then, while they’re in the oven, give them a stir’n'scrape to turn everything over every 15 minutes until they’re done. *spatula (my mom always called them child-cheaters and I got the habit)
Thanks Ellen! I love them with red potatoes too!
This is the ultimate comfort food for me, potatoes are so yummy. And this recipe or technique is so simple. Thanks for sharing!
sounds amaaaazing!!!!
Deffinitely making these tonight! Thanks a ton
