Ingredients
Scale
- 2 pounds Yukon Gold or red potatoes, cut into chunks
- 4 cloves fresh garlic, minced
- 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
- 2 tablespoons olive oil or melted butter
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley or rosemary, chopped
- Salt, to taste
- Pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Wash the potatoes and cut them into even-sized chunks.
- Mince the garlic finely.
- In a large bowl, toss the potato chunks with olive oil, minced garlic, salt, pepper, and your chosen herbs.
- Spread the potatoes on a baking sheet in a single layer.

- Garnish with fresh herbs and serve immediately.
Notes
For a healthier twist, you can swap in sweet potatoes or use vegan cheese for a dairy-free option. Allowing the potatoes to rest a few minutes after baking makes the cheese settle for delightful gooeyness.
