Cheesy Roasted Baby Potatoes
Golden, crispy baby potatoes smothered in a creamy, melty cheese sauce and topped with fresh herbs for an irresistible side dish.
Ingredients:
1.5 lbs baby potatoes, washed and halved
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
2 tbsp butter
1 tbsp flour
1 cup whole milk
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Fresh parsley, chopped
(for garnish)
Instructions:
Roast the Potatoes:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss the baby potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Arrange them cut-side down on a baking sheet. Roast for 25-30 minutes until golden and tender.
Prepare the Cheese Sauce:
In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the flour and cook for 1 minute to form a roux. Gradually whisk in the milk until smooth and slightly thickened.
Melt the Cheese:
Add the mozzarella, cheddar, and Parmesan to the sauce. Stir continuously until the cheese is fully melted and creamy. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper to taste.
Assemble:
Transfer the roasted potatoes to a serving dish. Pour the warm, gooey cheese sauce over the potatoes generously.
Garnish and Serve:
Sprinkle chopped fresh parsley on top for a pop of color and freshness. Serve hot and enjoy the cheesy goodness!
Pro Tip:
For an extra kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce to the cheese sauce!
