Oven-roasted new potatoes are a simple side dish, with few ingredients and very easy to prepare. The potatoes are peeled, seasoned with salt, pepper, sweet paprika, and garlic, then baked until golden brown on the outside and cooked through on the inside. We served them alongside chicken thighs, but you can pair them with any main dish that requires a hearty side. Quick Info Preparation time: not specified exactly; includes washing, peeling, and seasoning the potatoes Baking time: about 1 hour Total time: approximately 1 hour and a few minutes, depending on preparation time Servings: about 4-6 servings, depending on portion size and the side dishes served alongside Difficulty: easy Recipe type: oven side dish Oven temperature: 180-190 degrees Celsius Ingredients 1-1.5 kg new potatoes 1 teaspoon sea salt 1/2 teaspoon pepper 2 teaspoons sweet paprika 1 teaspoon garlic powder 3 tablespoons oil Optionally, you can add herbs if you want to change the flavor of the potatoes a bit. However, the basic recipe is prepared only with the ingredients above. Preparation method 1. Wash the new potatoes well to remove any traces of dirt from the skin. 2. Place the potatoes in a little salted water and peel them. New potatoes are easier to peel this way, without the need to remove a thick layer. 3. After peeling, place the potatoes in a dish. If they are small, you can leave them whole. Larger potatoes should be cut in half so they cook more evenly. 4. Drizzle the potatoes with the 3 tablespoons of oil. 5. Add the salt, pepper, sweet paprika, and garlic powder. Mix well so that the oil and spices coat all the pieces. 6. If using herbs, you can add them at this point along with the other spices. 7. Pour the seasoned potatoes into a baking tray and spread them out as evenly as possible. 8. Place the tray in the preheated oven at 180-190 degrees Celsius. 9. Bake the potatoes for about an hour or until they are nicely browned on top and cooked through. The time may vary depending on the oven and the tray used, as well as the size of the potatoes. 10. Check the potatoes towards the end of the baking. If they are larger, they may need more time than the smaller ones left whole. The potatoes are ready when they have taken on color on the surface and are soft inside. Serve them warm as a side. Why I make this recipe often I love this recipe because it doesn't require many ingredients and doesn't involve complicated preparation. The potatoes are peeled, seasoned, and go straight into the tray. Plus, the amount of spices can be easily adjusted without changing the preparation method. It is a suitable side dish when you are preparing meat in the oven and want to use the same cooking temperatures. For us, the combination with chicken thighs was hearty enough for an everyday meal. Tips Choose potatoes that are as close in size as possible. They will bake more evenly, and you won't have some pieces ready much earlier than others. Larger potatoes should be cut in half. If left whole, they may remain hard in the middle even if they are browned on the outside. Mix the potatoes well with the oil and spices before placing them in the tray. This way, the paprika, garlic, salt, and pepper distribute more evenly. The indicated temperature is 180-190 degrees Celsius, and baking takes about an hour. Don't rely solely on time: also check if they are cooked inside, as each oven and each tray can influence the result. Salt can be adjusted to taste, but it's better to start with the amount indicated in the recipe and also consider how you will serve the potatoes. Substitutions In this recipe, oil is used to coat the potatoes and help the spices adhere to their surface. If necessary, you can use another type of oil you have on hand, keeping the same amount of 3 tablespoons. You can replace sea salt with regular kitchen salt in the same approximate quantity. The final taste should be checked according to the type of salt used. Variations The basic version uses sweet paprika and garlic powder. If you want a slightly different taste, you can add herbs. The recipe source does not specify a precise amount for these, so they are added to taste. You can keep the potatoes whole when they are small or cut them in half if they are larger. This is the simplest modification that affects the baking time. The quantity of potatoes can be chosen between 1 and 1.5 kg, depending on the number of people and how hearty you want the side to be. Keep the proportions of spices as close to the recipe as possible if using a different quantity of potatoes. Serving ideas Oven-roasted new potatoes can be served alongside chicken thighs, as we prepared them. They are also suitable next to other main dishes for which a potato side is appropriate. Serve them warm, immediately after baking. For a simple meal, you can place them directly from the tray next to the main dish without any additional preparation. Frequently asked questions 1. Do all the potatoes need to be cut in half? No. Small potatoes can be left whole. Larger ones should be cut in half for easier and more even cooking. 2. How long do new potatoes take to bake? Potatoes bake for about an hour in a preheated oven at 180-190 degrees Celsius. The time is not fixed, as it depends on the oven, the tray used, and the size of the potatoes. They are ready when they are browned on the outside and cooked inside. 3. Can I add herbs? Yes. The recipe allows for the addition of herbs, depending on preference. These are added along with the salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic powder before the potatoes are mixed and placed in the tray. 4. Why should the oven be preheated? This way, the potatoes go directly into the indicated baking temperature in the recipe. Preheating helps maintain the approximate baking time and ensures even browning. Nutritional values The values below are estimates and can vary depending on the exact quantity of potatoes, oil, and the number of servings. The calculation is done roughly for 1.25 kg of potatoes, 3 tablespoons of oil, and 5 servings. For one serving: Calories: approximately 270 kcal Protein: approximately 5 g Carbohydrates: approximately 43 g Fats: approximately 8-9 g Fiber: approximately 5 g Most calories come from potatoes and oil. If you use the limit of 1 kg of potatoes and divide the dish into more servings, the value per serving will be lower. Conversely, with 1.5 kg of potatoes or larger servings, the values will increase. Storage and reheating The potatoes are best served warm, immediately after baking when they are browned on the outside. If leftovers remain, store them in a closed container in the refrigerator and consume them as soon as possible. For reheating, you can put them back in the oven until heated through. The texture will not be identical to when they were taken out of the oven, but the potatoes can also be consumed the next day.
