This easy Roasted Potatoes Recipe is sponsored by Le Saunier de Camargue Fleur de Sel. All opinions are my own.

Not only easy to make but gorgeous tasting, perfectly roasted potatoes!

Okay, so no, nothing is perfect, but these come really really … really close.

The trick to perfectly roasted potatoes is to parboil first, then give them a gentle smoosh with the back of a spoon and then roast them lovingly in a hot oven. Voila! Perfect roasted potatoes.

When I lived for a bit in Ireland, I definitely atemy fair share of potatoes. There are many ways to prepare potatoes, but I found that my favorite way to eat them, is simply roasting them until they have that crispy edge to them.

You could use regular-sized baking potatoes, cut them in half or quarters, and move on to the roasting. They are pretty good that way, but let me tell you, this roasted potato recipe is a tantalizing version that you’ll want to make over and over again.

How to season roasted potatoes.

Potatoes are wonderful, but if not seasoned well they can be bland and boring. They also require just enough salt to enhance their flavor.

I typically go easy on the salt during the cooking process and opt for a finishing salt, such as this beautiful Le Saunier de Camargue Fleur de Sel.

It’s a stunning finishing sea salt that is perfect for adding just serving. Not only is it ideal with savory dishes but is just as beautiful incorporated with desserts as well.
