These Parmesan Rosemary Roasted Potatoes bake crispy and golden with a salty bite from the grated Parmesan cheese. They’re universal in appeal. Crispy roasted potatoes are never a wrong choice to use as a side dishes they pair well with so many entrees, from burgers to fillet. Another bonus is potatoes appeal to vegetarians and meat lovers alike. My brother is a vegetarian, and when he visits, I always make a special effort to have choices that appeal to him, too.
My kids are no different from others in that french fries seem to be the vegetable of choice. When we’re dining out, that’s perfectly fine but, at home I’d like to introduce them to other choices. After explaining to them that these are also potatoes just in a different shape, they somehow become more enthusiastic about eating them. I like serving these Parmesan rosemary roasted potatoes alongside an Italian inspired meatloaf or a chicken entree in place of pasta. Simple flavors, featuring a spectacular classic flavor combination that just never gets old.
