Method

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

  2. 2

    Peel and dice the potatoes in small cubes and put in a large mixing bowl with the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, cayenne pepper {optional},salt and pepper. Use tongs to toss until the potatoes are coated.

  3. 3

    Transfer the potatoes to a baking sheet and spread out into 1 layer {you may need two baking sheets for this}.

  4. 4

    Roast in the oven for 40-45 minutes for softer potatoes or up to 1 hour for brown and crispier potatoes. Flip the potatoes two times throughout cooking using a spatula.

  5. 5

    Remove the potatoes from the oven and toss with the fresh cilantro and more salt and pepper to taste. Serve warm.

Notes

These potatoes would pair great with an alioli dipping sauce. If you aren't a fan of cilantro try parsley instead. You can also use a variety of other spices in these potatoes that would pair nicely with cilantro and lemon including sumac, za'atar or paprika.
