Instructions
- Preheat Your Equipment: Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Combine Ingredients: In a bowl, toss potatoes with olive oil, minced garlic, salt, pepper, herbs, and paprika (if using).
- Prepare Your Cooking Vessel: Spread potatoes in a single layer on the baking sheet, cut side down.
- Assemble the Dish: Space them evenly to allow air circulation for crispiness.

Notes

- For extra crunch, soak potatoes in water for 10 minutes before roasting.
- Use freshly minced garlic for the best aroma and flavor.
- Add parmesan in the last few minutes for a cheesy version.
