Pro tips

Yukon Potatoes are my favorite ones for roasting, but pretty much any kind of potatoes will work.
You don’t need to peel the potatoes if you don’t want to, especially if you use organic ones.
Add any spices or herbs you want.
I normally use Himalayan pink salt, although you can use any other type of salt.
If you don’t want to roast them, feel free to just steam the potatoes until soft and place them in a skillet with all the remaining ingredients. Then mix until well combined and sautée them until golden brown.

Are roasted potatoes healthy?

Of course! Roasted potatoes are way healthier than the fried ones, as they require much less oil and are also rich in antioxidants and nutrients. If you want to enjoy an even healthier version of this recipe, feel free to omit the salt!

How long will these roasted potatoes keep?

These potatoes will keep for quite a long time if stored properly. If you have any leftovers, keep them in a sealed container in the fridge for about 5-7 days.

How to serve roasted potatoes

This is a wonderful side dish, so there are lots of different ways of serving it! I personally love to have it with some vegan meat such as seitan, tempeh, or vegan meatloaf.

However, you could also eat these potatoes with some vegan mayo or vegan sour cream, or add a little bit of poultry seasoning or Italian seasoning and make them even more flavorful.
