Roasted Potatoes with Leeks

Author: Flavelo
Recipes Side Dishes
Forget boring fries! Here, potatoes roast alongside leek and garlic, absorbing all their aromas. The leek caramelizes in the oven, turning into sweet, crispy ribbons, while potatoes get soft inside and golden outside. A simple side dish that stands alone as dinner, plus resistant starch in cooled potatoes acts as a great prebiotic.

Ingredients

Equipment Needed

  • Baking sheet - for roasting
  • Large bowl - for tossing ingredients

Instructions

1 ✓

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Scrub potatoes well and cut into uniform 1-inch cubes.

Tip: Uniform size ensures even cooking.
2 ✓

Slice leeks into 1/4 inch rings, slice garlic thinly.

3 ✓

In a large bowl, toss potatoes, leeks, garlic, salt, pepper, rosemary leaves, and olive oil.

Tip: Tossing by hand ensures oil coats everything for crispiness.
4 ✓

Spread mixture in a single layer on a baking sheet. Don't crowd pan.

Tip: Crowding causes steaming instead of roasting.
5 ✓

Roast 30-40 minutes. Toss halfway through so all sides brown.

Tip: Turning helps prevent leeks from burning on one side.
6 ✓

Serve immediately while hot and crispy.

Recipe FAQ

Won't the leek burn?
Leeks cook faster, so mix them under or between potatoes rather than just on top. If browning too much, cover with foil halfway.
Why bake with skin on?
Skins hold vitamins and fiber, plus give a rustic, crispier result. Just scrub well!
