4 servings
- 1 ½ lb small waxy potatoes (such as baby yukon gold or baby red potatoes)
- 1 tbsp kosher salt, plus more for seasoning
- ¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
Chef's tipUse the same amount. Regular olive oil has a milder taste, so the dish will lose some of the fruity, peppery flavor that extra-virgin adds. This matters most in raw or finishing uses like dressings and drizzles. - ½ tsp black pepper, freshly ground
- ½ tsp garlic powder
For serving
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped (optional)
- flaky sea salt, for serving (optional)
Instructions
- 1
Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water by at least 1 inch. Add 1 tbsp kosher salt and bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to a steady simmer and cook until the potatoes are completely tender and a fork slides through the center with no resistance, 20–25 minutes. Drain and let them sit in the colander for 2–3 minutes to steam dry.

While the potatoes drain, preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C) and pour the olive oil onto a large rimmed baking sheet, tilting to coat the surface evenly.
