1. Cut potatoes into bite size portions. Take care not to make them too small as they will crumble when mixed.
2. Pour into roasting pan or Pyrex, preferably a roasting pan with cover.
3. Coat generously with oil, salt & pepper.
4. Mix with your hands (or spoon) and verify that all have been coated well.
5. Add lots of fresh herbs if using and mix again.
6. Place roasting pan with cover into 450 degree oven.
7. Bake for an hour to hour and a half, but mix every 30 - 45 minutes.
Tips
Suggestions: this recipe works wonderfully as a side dish for any meat and even fish. Yet, for it to succeed, it requires generous amounts of oil and spices. The potatoes should not be frying in a shallow pool of oil but each should be covered with oil of choice, salt (go a little more than the usual amount you use) and pepper. Any fresh herbs are also great additions.
