▢ 1 kg / 2 lb small to medium potatoes washed (I've used yukon gold potatoes)
▢ 3-4 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
▢ 2 large garlic cloves grated
▢ Handful of parsley leaves chopped
▢ 1 ¼ cups freshly grated Parmesan cheese (Parmigiano Reggiano)- ensure to finely grate it
▢ Good pinch of red pepper flakes
▢ Sea salt

Preheat oven to 180°C/350°F
In a large bowl add the olive oil, garlic, parsley, salt, red pepper flakes and half of the finely grated parmesan cheese. Stir and there’s your marinade, it should be a thick paste
Slice the potatoes in half, then score them by making diagonal slits along the inside pieces, without cutting all the way though. Turn the potatoes, and make diagonal slits the other way crossing over the first slices
Place the potatoes in the bowl with the marinade and make sure they’re all nicely coated on both sides
Pour the remaining grated parmesan cheese onto a plate, then dip the cut side of the potatoes into the parmesan for an extra crust
Add a light drizzle of olive oil or cooking spray to a baking dish, then place the potatoes cut facing down in an even layer. Brush on any leftover mixture and bake in the oven for 40-50 minutes (until they’re cooked tender all the way the through with a lovely golden brown crust)
Serve them up along your favorite dipping sauce or pour over a delicious meat-free gravy, and enjoy your crispy roasted Parmesan Crusted Potatoes!
