Ingredients

Scale

Potatoes and Cheese

  • 500g baby potatoes (mixed colors)
  • 150g plant-based feta (crumbled)

Herbs and Aromatics

  • 2 sprigs fresh rosemary (chopped)
  • 2 garlic cloves (minced)
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)
  • 1 tsp lemon zest (natural)

Seasonings and Oil

  • 2 tbsp olive oil (natural)
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Potatoes: Wash and halve the baby potatoes to ensure they cook evenly. In a large bowl, toss the potatoes with olive oil (natural), minced garlic, sea salt, and black pepper until all pieces are well-coated.
  2. Bake the Potatoes: Spread the seasoned potatoes evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Roast in a preheated oven at 200°C (400°F) for 25-30 minutes, until the potatoes are golden and crisp on the outside and tender on the inside.
  3. Add Plant-Based Feta and Herbs: Remove the potatoes when nearly done. Crumble the plant-based feta evenly over the potatoes, then sprinkle with chopped fresh rosemary and lemon zest (natural). Return to the oven for an additional 5-7 minutes to warm the feta and release herb aromas.
  4. Finish and Serve: Take the potatoes out of the oven and top with chopped fresh parsley. Serve warm and enjoy the creamy, tangy, and flavorful combination at its best.

Notes

  • Use uniform potato sizes to ensure even roasting and consistent texture.
  • Do not overcrowd the baking sheet to allow potatoes to crisp properly.
  • Add fresh herbs at the end of baking to preserve their bright flavor and aroma.
  • Adjust salt and pepper gradually to balance the creamy plant-based feta.
  • Allow the dish to rest for a few minutes before serving to let flavors meld.
