Simple Roasted Potatoes: A Delicious Traditional Recipe from Murcia

Easy Roasted Potatoes: A Traditional Murcian Recipe for Your Table A recent video from Spanish chef Ángel G. demonstrates a simple yet delicious method for preparing roasted potatoes, a staple dish enjoyed by many. This recipe, inspired by traditional Murcian cooking, promises a flavorful side dish that is both economical and easy to make. To begin, peel and slice potatoes into thick, uniform rounds. For enhanced flavor and texture, score the surface of each potato slice with a knife. Line a baking dish with parchment paper, then drizzle generously with extra virgin olive oil. Season the oil with salt and freshly ground black pepper, ensuring the pepper is freshly milled for optimal aroma. Carefully arrange the potato slices in the prepared dish. Add several whole garlic cloves among the potatoes; these will infuse the dish with a subtle, aromatic garlic flavor as they roast. Drizzle more olive oil over the potatoes. Bake the potatoes in a preheated oven at 180-200 degrees Celsius for approximately 35-40 minutes, or until they are golden brown and tender. Once removed from the oven, allow the potatoes to rest for 8-10 minutes. This resting period is crucial, as it allows the potatoes to absorb the remaining olive oil, intensifying their flavor and ensuring a moist interior. This versatile dish pairs well with a variety of main courses.
