Cooking aromatic baked potatoes at home allows you to enjoy the wonderful taste of a simple but delicious dish.

Potatoes turn into a true delicacy: inside they become tender and soft, and on the outside they acquire an attractive golden crust.

The aroma of garlic makes this dish simply irresistible. This recipe is a favorite of mine and is sure to please everyone in the family.

We choose small-sized potatoes; I use the “Mini” variety. We wash it thoroughly, peel it and put it in the pan. If you have large potatoes, just cut them into pieces. New potatoes that don’t need to be peeled are also great. Pour enough cold water to cover the potatoes, add a teaspoon of salt. Place the pan on the fire and wait until it boils. Remove the foam and after the start of boiling, cook for exactly three minutes – it is important not to overcook.

The next step is preparing the flavorful dressing. In a separate container, mix three tablespoons of vegetable oil, half a teaspoon of salt, paprika, Provençal herbs, finely chopped garlic and pepper to taste. Mix and combine with potatoes so that the dressing evenly covers each piece. Place the potatoes in a baking dish in a single layer and add pieces of butter.

Place in an oven preheated to 190-200 degrees and bake for 25-40 minutes until golden brown. Baking time varies depending on the size of the pieces and oven power. If desired, before serving, you can sprinkle the potatoes with finely chopped herbs and add more garlic.

This garlic and herb baked potato recipe guarantees a delicious taste and tempting aroma. The potatoes turn out soft on the inside and crispy on the outside—you can’t resist such beauty. Be sure to try to cook it – it will be a wonderful addition to the holiday table or an ordinary lunch or dinner. If you liked the recipe, don’t forget to like and comment. I wish you all a bon appetit and see you again in the culinary world.
