I tend to go lite with the seasoning with this roasted potatoes recipe. I enjoy the taste of potatoes and prefer to let them shine on their own.
I add a touch of oregano to these potatoes, but feel free to leave this herb out if you are not a fan.
Likewise, if you enjoy a lot of flavor, add some garlic, scallions, or rosemary.
For this roasted potatoes recipe I am using yellow potatoes. However, feel free to use red potatoes, baking potatoes (russet), or sweet potatoes.
