Roasted baby Dutch yellow potatoes achieve the perfect texture via a genius hack that’s easier and saves time compared to pre-boiling. Top with an amazingly easy Greek yogurt sauce for an extra bit of protein and a refreshing zing.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Wash and thoroughly dry potatoes, and if they are small enough, leave them whole, otherwise cut in half to make 1″-2″ chunks.
Add baby potatoes to a medium bowl and toss with 1 tablespoon of Kosher salt. Microwave for 2 minutes, stir, then microwave for another 2 minutes till barely fork tender.
Add oil, remaining salt and any additional seasonings to the bowl and toss. Place seasoned potatoes on a baking sheet and roast in a 400 degree f preheated oven for at least 20 minutes, making sure to toss 1-2 times during roasting. If you would like a crispier, more golden texture, roast for an additional 10 minutes or so.
To make the Greek yogurt sauce
Add all ingredients to a bowl and mix well. Season to taste with salt and pepper. If needed, add a bit more lemon juice and a splash of water if you’d like to thin the sauce without making it too tangy.
When the roasted Dutch yellow baby potatoes are cooked to your liking, remove from the oven and serve over a good dollop of the yogurt sauce. Garnish with fresh parsley and green onions and enjoy!
Notes
To achieve a nice, crispy edges, do 2 things. First, after rinsing the potatoes thoroughly, make sure to dry them well—excess moisture can prevent crisping.Also, don’t overcrowd the baking sheet. Spread them in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Overcrowding traps steam, making them soggy.Store leftover potatoes in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. Reheat in a 350 degree oven for 5-7 minutes, or in an air fryer for 3-5 minutes.
