Author: Pamela

Ingredients

  • 1 Tablespoon grated lemon zest about 2 lemons
  • 1 teaspoon grated orange zest about half an orange
  • 1/3 cup fresh parsley leaves and tender stems finely chopped
  • 2 heaping Tablespoons fresh mint leaves finely chopped
  • 2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves finely chopped
  • 1 large clove of garlic minced or grated
  • a pinch of red pepper flakes
  • 2 pounds small fingerling potatoes washed, dried and halved (leave whole if they are only an inch or so long)
  • 3 Tablespoons unrefined olive oil divided
  • Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.  Line a large baking sheet with unbleached parchment paper.
  • Make the gremolata:  in a small bowl mix together the zests, herbs, garlic and red pepper flakes.  Set aside.
  • Place the potatoes on the prepared baking sheet and toss with 2 tablespoons of olive oil.  Spread the potatoes in an even layer and sprinkle with ¾ teaspoon of sea salt and black pepper to taste.  Place in the oven for 35 minutes.
  • After 35 minutes, remove the potatoes from the oven and add another tablespoon of olive oil and half the gremolata.  Toss until well combined.  Place back in the oven for another 10 minutes or until potatoes are tender and golden.
  • Remove from the oven and transfer to a serving bowl.  Toss with the remaining gremolata and taste for seasoning.  Sprinkle with an extra pinch of salt and pepper, if desired.  Serve warm or at room temperature.
