Ingredients for Baby Roasted Deviled Potatoes

  • Baby Red Potatoes
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons salt (1 teaspoon for potatoes, 1 teaspoon for butter mixture)
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper (optional)
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
  • Cider Vinegar
  • Dijon Mustard
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (or more, to taste)

How to Make Baby Roasted Deviled Potatoes

  1. Wash 1 pound of baby potatoes thoroughly under cold running water.
  2. Pat the potatoes completely dry with a clean kitchen towel.
  3. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Place a large baking sheet lightly sprayed with non-stick cooking spray or brushed with butter in the oven to preheat for 10 minutes.
  4. If using large potatoes (approximately 3 pounds), cut them into quarters.
  5. In a large bowl, toss the potatoes with 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper (optional).
  6. Carefully remove the hot baking sheet from the oven. Arrange the potatoes cut-side down (if using quartered potatoes) on the preheated baking sheet.
  7. Roast for 12-14 minutes, until the undersides are golden brown.
  8. Flip the potatoes and continue roasting until tender and slightly crispy, about 15-20 minutes more. (Smaller potatoes will cook faster; larger potatoes may take a little longer).
  9. While the potatoes roast, melt 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter in a small saucepan over medium heat.
  10. Whisk in 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (or more, to taste), and 1 teaspoon salt.
  11. Transfer the roasted potatoes to a large bowl. Pour the hot butter mixture over the potatoes and toss gently until they are evenly coated.
  12. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
