Ingredients

  • pounds small Yukon gold potatoes
  • 4 3"-4" sprigs of rosemary
  • 8 garlic cloves peeled and smashed
  • 1 Tablespoon black peppercorns
  • Tablespoons kosher salt
  • 2 quarts water
  • ½ cup olive oil

Instructions

  • Slice potatoes in half.
  • Place potatoes, rosemary, garlic, and peppercorns in a large saucepan.
  • Cover with water.
  • Add salt.
  • Bring to a boil over high heat.
  • Reduce heat to medium and cook for 5 minutes.
  • Turn off heat.
  • Let potatoes stand in brine for at least 5-6 hours.
  • When ready to cook, heat the oven to 425 °F.
  • Spray a sheet pan with cooking spray. Set aside.
  • Drain potatoes.
  • Remove rosemary, garlic, and peppercorns.
  • Place potatoes in a bowl.
  • Add olive oil.
  • Toss potatoes to coat.
  • Pour onto prepared sheet pan.
  • Roast, stirring occasionally, for 20-25 minutes, until golden brown and crisp.
  • Serve immediately.

Notes

  • To make the garlic cloves easier to peel, run them under some water, then smash them with the flat part of a knife blade.
  • The longer you leave the potatoes in the brine, the more flavor they will have.
  • Make sure to stir the potatoes occasionally during roasting to keep them from sticking and ensure that they brown on all sides.
  • These are better served hot!
