Tender roasted potatoes get an extra boost of flavor and crunch, thanks to a crispy layer of golden Parmesan. We added a simple stir-together paprika aioli for dipping, but these flavorful little nuggets are equally delicious on their own. Serve them as a fun appetizer or as a side dish.

Time 1h5m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 1/2 pounds small Yukon gold potatoes, halved crosswise
4 sprigs fresh thyme
3 tablespoons olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Nonstick cooking spray
3/4 cup finely grated Parmesan
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 small clove garlic, finely grated
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil and place on the center rack of the oven. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (see Cook's Note).
  • For the Parmesan potatoes: Toss the potatoes, thyme sprigs, olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt and several grinds of black pepper in a large bowl until combined. Carefully remove the hot baking sheet from the oven and spray with nonstick cooking spray. Lay the potatoes cut-side-down in an even layer. Bake until tender and golden brown, about 35 minutes.
  • For the smoked paprika aioli: Meanwhile, whisk together the mayonnaise, lemon juice, Dijon, paprika, garlic, a pinch of salt and a couple grinds of black pepper in a small bowl until smooth. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to serve.
  • Remove the baking sheet from the oven and push the potatoes to one side of the pan (try to give yourself as much empty surface area as possible). Lightly spray the foil with more cooking spray, then sprinkle the Parmesan in an even layer over the empty space on the baking sheet, making sure to go all the way to the edges to create a roughly 14-by-12-inch rectangle. Place the potatoes on top of the Parmesan layer, cut-side down, so that all the potatoes are sitting on the cheese.
  • Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake until all the Parmesan is golden brown and crisp, 8 to 10 minutes more. Cool slightly, about 5 minutes, then use a spatula to lift the crispy, cheesy potatoes off the pan (some potatoes will come off individually while others will come off in pairs). Serve with the smoked paprika aioli on the side.

Categories     Side

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 10

750 g / 1.5 lb baby potatoes (, halved (about 3.5cm / 1.75", 20 - 24 potatoes))
2 tbsp olive oil (, plus more for drizzling)
1/2 cup / 50 g grated parmesan (, the sand-like type (Note 1))
1/2 tsp garlic powder ((or sub with onion powder))
1/2 tsp dried oregano or thyme
1/2 tsp paprika
1/4 tsp salt ((I use table salt, leave out to lower sodium))
1/2 tsp black pepper
3/4 cup sour cream, or sub with plain yoghurt (, or a combination of both)
1/4 cup finely chopped green onions/scallions (, plus more for garnish (or chives))

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 200C/400F.
  • Mix Parmesan Mixture in a bowl.
  • Drizzle oil in 22 x 33cm / 9 x 13" glass baking dish (Note 2). Tilt pan to spread all over the base.
  • Use a spoon to scatter the Parmesan Mixture over the base. Spread as evenly as you can. Once sprinkled, do not touch - don't try to spread it.
  • Place potatoes cut side down, pressing firmly.
  • Optional: drizzle top of potatoes with a touch of oil or spray with oil, then sprinkle with salt.
  • Bake potatoes for 35 - 40 minutes or until they are soft and the parmesan crust is deep golden (you can check through the glass!)
  • REST for 5 minutes. Then use an egg flip to cut between every 4 or so potatoes (i.e. cutting through the parmesan crust which bonds between each potato - see video), then scoop up 4 or so potatoes and flip them upside down so the cheese side is up on a serving platter.
  • Serve with Dipping Sauce, if using, and sprinkle over extra green onions if desired. Serve as a side dish or as nibbles!

Tips:

  • Roast the potatoes at a high temperature (425 degrees Fahrenheit) for at least 30 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
  • Sprinkle the potatoes with grated Parmesan cheese and chopped parsley before serving. This will add extra flavor and texture.
