These crispy roasted fingerling potatoes are coated with Parmesan and a hint of truffle oil, delivering a gourmet side dish that’s quick, easy, and perfect for dinner or entertaining.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 pounds fingerling potatoes, washed and halved lengthwise
  • 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon truffle oil
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Sea salt, to taste
  • Freshly cracked black pepper, to taste
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  2. Wash and dry the fingerling potatoes thoroughly, then halve them lengthwise.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, toss the halved potatoes with 3 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, sea salt, and freshly cracked black pepper until evenly coated.
  4. Arrange the potatoes cut side down in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded.
  5. Roast for 25-30 minutes, flipping the potatoes halfway through (around 15 minutes) using a spatula or tongs, until golden and crispy on the edges and tender inside.
  6. Remove the baking sheet from the oven. Drizzle 1 teaspoon of truffle oil evenly over the potatoes and sprinkle 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese on top. Toss gently or spread evenly.
  7. Return the potatoes to the oven and roast for an additional 5-7 minutes until the Parmesan melts into a crisp, golden crust.
  8. Let the potatoes rest for a few minutes after removing from the oven. Sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley before serving.

Notes

Dry potatoes thoroughly before roasting to avoid steaming. Do not overcrowd the pan to ensure crispiness. Add truffle oil towards the end of cooking to preserve its aroma. Watch Parmesan closely during the final roast to prevent burning. Leftovers can be reheated in the oven at 400°F for 10 minutes to regain crispiness; avoid microwaving.
