Potatoes, you have to say, they´re one of the most important vegetables when it comes to side dishes. And if they´re made correctly, a star dish on your dinner table. In this post, I´m going to show you how to make one of the best potato side dishes ever. We are talking Lemon Garlic Spanish Potatoes.
These Lemon Garlic Spanish Potatoes are loaded with flavors, easy to make, like seriously, no hassels here and they come together in about 30 minutes. The perfect side dish for the holidays or any time of the year.
To make this recipe, I used baby new potatoes. These potatoes are great, because they are low in starch and they cook quicker than other potatoes. However, you can use any potatoes you like to make this dish.
TIPS & TRICKS to Make this Recipe: To roast the potatoes, I used the bake + broil option (bottom + top heat) in my oven. If your oven does not do both functions at the same time, no big deal. Just bake them for an extra 5 minutes, and get in there at the half way point and move them around.
Key Ingredients & Cookware I used in this Recipe:
MY SWISS DIAMON FRYING PANS
EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL
SPANISH SEA SALT
