Comments
This is a very basic recipe for roasted potatoes that is easy to modify depending on what flavors you’d like to have.  You can easily add other spices before roasting or toss with a nice flavored oil once they’re finished before serving.  It’s important not to disturb them too much during cooking, they’ll release when they’re ready!
