Roasted Potatoes With Red Onions

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 lbs potatoes, small and firm
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 red onions, cut into chunks
  • 8 cloves garlic, unpeeled
  • 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, chopped
  • salt, to taste
  • black pepper, to taste

Method

  1. Set your oven to 450°F. Peel the potatoes, quarter them, and give them a rinse under water.
  2. It is important to dry the potatoes thoroughly so they become crisp during cooking.
  3. Put the butter and olive oil into a roasting pan and warm it in the oven.
  4. Once the butter has melted and is foaming, add in the potato quarters, red onion chunks, unpeeled garlic cloves and chopped rosemary.
  5. Toss everything to coat well, then arrange the contents in one even layer.
  6. Roast the pan in the oven for about 25 minutes, until the potatoes are golden and a fork pierces them easily.
  7. Occasionally shake the pan to move the potatoes around as they cook.
  8. After the potatoes are cooked, season them with salt and black pepper to your taste.
  9. A tip: add the salt just a few minutes before the end of cooking to help the potatoes keep their shape.
  10. Serve the dish while hot.
