The Best Roasted Potatoes
These lemon herb roasted potatoes are absolutely delightful, made with olive oil, melted butter, garlic, lemon juice, herb and honey.
Adding a bit of honey really makes the potatoes so much more delicious as the bottom part of these roasted potatoes became caramelized, ahhh, heavenly.
To make sure that your roasted potatoes get the amazing flavors of the herb and lemon, slice each potato horizontally like hasselback potatoes, but without cutting through. Every slice is coated with the buttery, garlicky flavor.
Active time to make this dish is only 15 minutes! The rest is baking time.
Just look at these golden-hued and glossy looking roasted potatoes, they might well be the best roasted potatoes recipe you’ve ever attempted at home!

Cook’s Tips
- As a trick to cut these potatoes perfectly, line up two chopsticks horizontally on each side of the potato. Then, use a knife to cut vertically. This will help you not cut all the way through the potatoes.
- Then, butter up the potatoes in the spices, making sure to get it in between each potato slice.
- Your potatoes will be roasted to perfection, soaking in every flavor!

I have like 20 mins left. My cooking style is quite different…. I did not put any lemon in there. I also didn’t time it which might have been a mistake so wish me luck. I only put different spices and I hope that it turns out well but I did put honey in it so let’s see how that turns out I will let y’all know

How do you cut the potato like that?

Just slice it by placing the potatoes on a spoon of a ladle.

Hi Daisy, so happy to hear that you love this lemon herb roasted potatoes. :)
Tem
These “visually” look sooo good – I willl definitely try them – easy recipe and ladies just use your imagination for spices and flavors. One question: how on earth did you manage to slice these little guys so “evenly” with a free hand and knife – it looks like you might have used some kind of gadget. Anyway, they look terrific and I will put them into my file to cook soon. Thanks.
Rasa Malaysia
Hi Tem, yes, I slice them by hand, I have done them so many times I am a pro. Put the potato in a “spoon” part of a wood ladle and slice, it will make sure that you don’t slice through.
Autumn
That is a great tip!
Rhonda
Use chop sticks also works :) one in front and on in the back

I used Butter Potatoes everyone loved them so easy and looks impressive for a dinner party
Pat Morris
I make potatoes similar to this recipe in the cut I put a very thin slice of onion for the grill and wrap them in foil.
Mary
i usually don’t make a recipe for company before trying it out first. I wish I had done that with this recipe. The potatoes were slightly leathery and dry in consistency and lacked that pop of flavor I was hoping for.
Roger
Came out fine and were cute; guess I’m not a fan of lemon potatoes.
Gwen Ganj
These look amazing! Planning on making them soon. I’m sure they taste great but I love the presentation.
Helen
I tried these potatoes. I thought I followed the recipe correctly. Mine were dry and little to know flavor, What did I do wrong? I saw you had garlic and lemons in the roasting pan, I did not do that..

Your temp may be different. Add butter to moisturize back up.
Jeanette
It looks like you have extra, whole cloves of garlic in the pan with the potatoes? Can you please advise.
Rasa Malaysia
You can add 1 head of garlic cloves in the pan but not necessary.
Karen Martin
Honey, huh? Well, with honey, I think these might be terrific with the roasted pork with applesauce I’m making this weekend. Thanks for the recipe!
Rasa Malaysia
Try it I am sure you will like it.
Chuck
Would this recipe work for Russets? We just got a 5lb bag and would love to make these to use some of them up!
Rasa Malaysia
I think so but Russets are bigger so might take longer to roast.
Tamara
If potatoes are large you can cut them in half lengthwise, stand the potatoes on the flat end & then cut.
