What to serve roasted potatoes with?
And if you make these I truly don’t see how you could not.
They’re a flavor and texture explosion and one of our favorite savory dishes. These garlic roasted potatoes are cooked to crispy perfection and then tossed with fresh dill, crumbled goat cheese and spring peas. The recipe comes together in snap, but looks super fancy. Pair this with a springy salmon, chicken, steak, grilled swordfish, or really anything this season!
How to mince garlic?
Ahh garlic. Back when I didn’t cook at all, garlic was one of my most feared ingredients. I didn’t reaaaally understand how you were supposed to prepare it and I felt like every time I cooked with it I ended up with an unintentional huge chunk somewhere in my food.
Then I bought this amazing garlic press and now I actually put garlic in everything. Oops.
If you don’t have a garlic press, it’s actually not that hard though:
- Take your garlic and peel away the papery exterior so you can get to the cloves inside. Press down firmly on top of the garlic and the cloves should split apart.
- Using a sharp knife, slice off the root end of the clove (this is where its a little brown and the skin starts).
- Press the flat side of the knife flat against the clove and give it a good whack. This should loosen the skin and it will fall off the clove.
- Once all the skin has been removed take the clove and finely chop the garlic in both directions, so that you get super tiny pieces.
- Once again take the flat side of the knife and press down on the garlic, scraping the knife back and forth until the garlic almost begins to form a paste. Voila!
- If you’re still confused this is a great video to watch!
Substitutions in this spring potatoes?
This is one of those recipes that’s easily tweaked so feel free to have fun with it! Don’t have peas on hand? Toss in another fresh veggie! Not a goat cheese fan? Try a different soft cheese you love. Use rosemary instead, slice the potatoes in half, use sweet potato chunks..we could go on forever. This is why potatoes are amazing. Better yet…they’re also super cheap 🙂
Whatever the choice, these roasted fingerling potatoes are the perfect vessel for all sorts of flavors.
Have a wonderful weekend full of potatoes and brownies my loves!

Do you steam peas???
We did not, but you absolutely can!
Hey Muriel! Try Hing (Asafetida). We use it to add the onion/garlic taste as both alergic to Garlic 🙁
what if you are allergic to garlic but wanted a strong flavor
Hey Muriel! You could use onion powder or another spice!
