Equipment
- Chopping board
- Kitchen knife
- Measuring spoons
- Mixing bowls
- Baking tray
Ingredients
- 2 pounds potatoes (1 kilo), rinsed and chopped
- 2 & 1/2 to 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 teaspoons za'atar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
- parsley, for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
- Rinse, peel, and chop the potatoes. (Note: I typically chop a medium-sized potato into 4 parts).
- Place the chopped potatoes in a mixing bowl and add the olive oil, za'atar, salt, and pepper.
- Combine everything evenly, ensuring that the potatoes are coated with oil and spices.
- Transfer the potatoes with za'atar into a baking tray --- move them around to allow some space in between.
- Place the baking tray in the oven for 35 to 40 minutes or until the potatoes are golden.
- Transfer your roasted za'atar potatoes into plates and serve --- garnish them with chopped, fresh parsley, if preferred.
Notes
- Cook's Tip #1: Feel free to keep the potato skins on --- make sure you rinse (or scrub) them properly before chopping.
- Cook's Tip #2: A ceramic or glass baking dish can also be used instead of a baking tray.
