Ingredients
- 1½ Pounds Baby Red Potatoes halved
- 2 tablespoons Olive Oil
- Zest of One Lemon
- 2 tablespoons Za'atar
- ¾ teaspoon Fine Sea Salt
For Garnish/Serving
- 3-4 tablespoons Tahini Sauce
- ¼ cup Pomegranate Pearls
- 3 tablespoons Pistachios roughly chopped
- Fresh Parsley chopped
Instructions
- Pre-heat the oven at 400°F and line the baking sheet pan with parchment paper (or foil).
- In a large bowl, places the red potatoes, olive oil, lemon zest, zaatar seasoning and salt. Toss well to coat.
- Now, spread the tossed potatoes on line baking sheet pan in single layer. Roaste for 30-35 minutes or until golden and fork tender (last 4-5 mintes of broiling gives nice crispy potatoes).
For serving
- Take it out of the oven and allow it to rest for few minutes (you can dish out the potatoes, sprinkle parsley and serve as is).
- Transfer on to a serving platter, drizzle tahini sauce, top with chopped pistachios and pomegranate pearls, sprinkle chopped fresh parsley and serve right away!
Notes
- Be sure to scrub, rinse, and pat the potatoes dry before roasting to make sure they are a perfect consistency.
- If you are using larger red potatoes for this recipe, then you will need to dice them into smaller sizes for roasting.
- The seasoning should stick to the potatoes very well so be careful not to use too much oil.
- Broil the potatoes the last minutes of cooking to create potatoes that are extra crispy and delicious.
