Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 lbs (907 grams) baby or Yukon Gold potatoes, halved
Sauce Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup (60 milliliters) honey
- 1/4 cup (60 milliliters) Dijon mustard
- 3 tablespoons (45 milliliters) olive oil
Seasoning Ingredients:
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon (5 grams) sea salt
- 1/2 teaspoon (2.5 grams) black pepper
- Fresh herbs (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
- Thoroughly cleanse potatoes under cool running water, then slice each potato into symmetrical halves to ensure even cooking.
- Create a vibrant glaze by whisking honey, Dijon mustard, olive oil, finely minced garlic, kosher salt, and freshly cracked black pepper in a spacious mixing bowl until smooth and well-combined.
- Gently fold potato halves into the glaze, ensuring each piece is completely and uniformly coated with the glossy mixture.
- Arrange glazed potato halves on a parchment-lined baking sheet, positioning them cut-side down to maximize caramelization and crispy edges.
- Position baking sheet in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) and roast for approximately 25-30 minutes, rotating potatoes midway through cooking to promote even browning and tenderness.
- Once potatoes develop a golden-brown exterior and reach fork-tender consistency, remove from oven and optionally garnish with fresh chopped herbs like parsley or chives for added visual appeal and herbaceous flavor.
- Transfer to a serving platter and enjoy immediately while potatoes remain warm and crisp.
Notes
- Opt for waxy potatoes like Yukon Gold or red potatoes to ensure a creamy interior and crispy exterior during roasting.
- Pat potatoes completely dry before coating to help the glaze adhere better and create maximum crispiness.
- Adjust honey mustard ratio based on personal taste preference – more honey for sweetness, more mustard for tang.
- For a gluten-free version, use certified gluten-free Dijon mustard and check honey source.
