    Less is more.

    You are probably familiar with days where you just want a good plateful for dinner. Food for which you don’t need a whole lot of rocket science.

    Preferably something you can just pop into a hot oven in just a couple of minutes.

    No fancy deconstructed stuff.

    Easy Paprika & Rosemary Roasted Potatoes

    Make sure to use waxy oven potatoes for this roasted potato recipe.

    That type of potatoes is also the best for roasting. At least if you ask me because I like their creamy texture once they are fully cooked through.

    Floury potatoes on the other side will easily dry out if they spend too much time in the hot oven. And their texture will not be as appetizing.

    But that is just a personal though.

    If you love rosemary roasted potatoes as a side, then you should also check out another delicious potato side dish I prepare very often: my crunchy crisp and cheesy oven roasted parmesan potatoes!

    Another potato treat that you have to try out.

    Enjoy!

    Potato Side Dishes

    Plain and simple potatoes that go well with basically any type of protein.

    Beef, chicken, pork, fish, even veggie or vegan alternatives.

    Not that a yummy potato mash is too much work though. But I sometimes do feel more like filling an oven tray up with ingredients and let the oven do the rest.

    I sometimes just want a potato side dish without having to put too much work and effort into it. Just the most basic and purest of flavors in a short amount of time.

    Airfryer

    Just toss the potatoes in a bit of oil and your favorite seasonings, then cook them in the air fryer at around 200°C (400°F) for about 15-20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even cooking.
