How to Make Baby Potatoes With Cumin

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Wash and halve 1 pound of baby potatoes.
  3. Toss potatoes on a baking sheet with 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 teaspoon ground cumin, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  4. Roast for 20 minutes, then broil for 5 minutes, or until edges are golden brown and crispy, shaking the pan halfway through.
  5. Remove from oven and toss gently with an additional 1/4 teaspoon salt (or to taste). Serve immediately.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
