Golden, crispy roasted potatoes infused with fragrant truffle oil and topped with rich Parmesan cheese, perfect as a gourmet side dish for any occasion.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds baby Yukon Gold potatoes (about 900 grams)
  • 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 to 2 teaspoons white truffle oil
  • 1/2 cup finely grated Parmesan cheese (about 50 grams)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves (optional)
  • Sea salt to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • Chopped fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
  2. Wash and dry the baby Yukon Gold potatoes thoroughly. Halve each potato so the cut side is flat.
  3. Place the potatoes in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and 1 teaspoon of truffle oil. Toss to coat evenly.
  4. Sprinkle garlic powder, sea salt, and freshly ground black pepper over the potatoes. Toss gently to distribute seasoning.
  5. Spread the potatoes cut side down on the baking sheet in a single layer with space between each piece.
  6. Roast for 35-40 minutes, flipping the potatoes halfway through using a spatula or tongs for even browning.
  7. About 5 minutes before the end of roasting, sprinkle grated Parmesan and fresh thyme leaves over the potatoes. Return to oven until cheese melts and forms a golden crust.
  8. Remove from oven and let cool for a few minutes. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

Dry potatoes thoroughly before roasting to ensure crispiness. Use fresh grated Parmesan for best melting and crisping. Avoid overcrowding the pan to prevent soggy potatoes. Use truffle oil sparingly as it is potent. For extra crispiness, broil for 1-2 minutes after adding Parmesan, watching closely to avoid burning.
