Butter: Adding richness and depth of flavor, butter helps to achieve that golden crispiness we all crave in roasted potatoes.

Garlic: The star of the show, minced garlic infuses each potato chunk with its aromatic essence, lending a bold and irresistible flavor.

Rosemary: Dried rosemary brings a fragrant herbal note to the dish, enhancing its savory profile and providing a delightful contrast to the richness of the potatoes.

Salt: A pinch of salt not only enhances the natural flavors of the ingredients but also helps to season the potatoes evenly, ensuring a perfect balance of taste.

Black Pepper: Just a hint of black pepper adds a subtle kick, elevating the overall flavor profile and bringing a touch of warmth to every bite.

Expert Tip: Don’t skimp on the garlic! The minced garlic is what gives these potatoes their signature flavor, so feel free to add more if you’re a garlic lover.
