1
Prepare the potatoes by cutting them into bite-sized pieces. Remove any damaged spots and halve any that seem too large.
2
Place the potatoes in cold salted water and bring to a boil. Cook until the potatoes are tender all the way through.
3
Drain the potatoes and spread them on a baking sheet to cool slightly. This prevents them from becoming soggy and allows advance preparation.
4
In a bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, fresh thyme, fresh rosemary, parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly.
5
Toss the cooled potatoes with the herb-oil mixture. Either bake in a 350°F oven for a few minutes or heat in a frying pan until fragrant and golden.
