Ingredients
Potatoes
- 1 ½ pounds (680 grams) fingerling potatoes, cut in half lengthwise
Seasoning & Oils
- 2 tablespoons avocado oil
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon truffle oil (preferably white truffle oil)
- Sprinkle of truffle salt
Finishing Touches
- Finely grated parmesan cheese (to taste)
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh parsley
- Zest of 1 lemon (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) to ensure it’s hot enough for roasting the potatoes to a crispy texture.
- Prep Potatoes: Cut the fingerling potatoes lengthwise in half to expose a flat surface that will crisp nicely during roasting.
- Season Potatoes: Place the halved potatoes in a bowl or directly on a baking sheet and drizzle with avocado oil, sea salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Toss well to coat all pieces evenly.
- Arrange Potatoes: Spread the potatoes out in a single layer on the baking sheet with the cut side facing down to maximize contact for crispness.
- Roast Potatoes: Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender inside and have developed a golden, crispy bottom on the cut side. The exact time may vary depending on the potato size.
- Add Truffle Flavors: Remove the potatoes from the oven and while they are hot, immediately drizzle truffle oil over them and sprinkle with truffle salt. Gently toss to distribute the flavors evenly.
- Finish and Serve: Transfer the potatoes to a serving bowl, then sprinkle generously with finely grated parmesan, chopped fresh parsley, and lemon zest (if using). Serve immediately while warm and enjoy the rich, earthy flavors.
Notes
- For best flavor, use white truffle oil, but black truffle oil can also be used.
- Ensure potatoes are spread in a single layer for even roasting and crispiness.
- The lemon zest is optional but adds a fresh brightness that complements the truffle and parmesan.
- Adjust the amount of parmesan according to your preference for cheesiness.
- These potatoes are best served immediately to enjoy their crisp texture.
