Ingredients:  
1 lb. mini creamer or fingerling potatoes
2 sprigs fresh rosemary
2 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
Salt and pepper
Directions:
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 425ºF.

Halve the potatoes. Finely chop the rosemary leaves.

On a baking sheet, toss the potatoes with the rosemary, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Arrange cut-side down in a single layer, being sure to space apart. If necessary, use 2 baking sheets or work in batches--space is the key to crispy potatoes!

Roast until the cut sides are golden brown and the potatoes are tender, 18-20 minutes. Season with salt and serve hot.

VARIATIONS

ROASTED POTATOES WITH WILTED SPINACH: For extra color and nutrients, toss the hot potatoes right out of the oven with 3 cups baby spinach just until wilted. Add 1 more Tbsp olive oil if needed.

PARMESAN-CRUSTED POTATOES: After halving the potatoes, spread the cut sides with 2 Tbsp Dijon mustard and sprinkle with ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese. Before putting the potatoes on the baking sheet, drizzle the baking sheet with ½ Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil. Instead of tossing the potatoes, arrange them cut-side down in a single layer. Sprinkle with the rosemary and salt and pepper. Drizzle with 3 Tbsp olive oil. Roast as directed.
