How to make?

Ingredients

2 lbs. small potatoes, washed and cut into 1/2 inch cubes

3 tablespoons olive oil

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon dried thyme leaves

Salt and pepper to taste

Directions

Cut the potatoes in half and put them into a large 8-qt. pot. Cover with cold water, and salt generously. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer over medium heat. Cook until the potatoes are just tender enough to pierce with a skewer, 4 to 5 minutes. They should be al dente, just shy of tender enough to eat. Drain, spread onto a large rimmed baking sheet, and let cool at room temperature for up to 2 hours. Heat the oven to 500°F. Place the potatoes, thyme sprigs, garlic, 1-1/2 tsp. salt, and 1/2 tsp. pepper in a large bowl and toss with the fat or oil. Arrange in a single layer on the baking sheet. Roast, stirring halfway with a metal spatula, until browned and crisp, 15 to 30 minutes. Discard thyme sprigs and serve.
