Instructions
Creating these fantastic Baked Feta Roast Potatoes is straightforward and fun! Follow these simple steps:
1. Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Prepare the Potatoes: Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly and slice them in half if they are larger in size. This allows for quicker cooking and better flavor absorption.
3. Mix the Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the halved potatoes, olive oil, dried oregano, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss until the potatoes are evenly coated.
4. Arrange on a Baking Tray: Spread the seasoned potatoes out on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Ensure they are in a single layer for even cooking.
5. Add the Feta: Take the block of feta cheese and place it in the center of the tray with the potatoes surrounding it. Drizzle a little olive oil over the feta to enhance its creaminess while baking.
6. Bake: Place the baking tray in the preheated oven. Bake for about 35-40 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden and crispy on the outside, and the feta is beautifully softened.
7. Garnish: Once done, remove the tray from the oven. Crumble the baked feta over the potatoes and sprinkle with fresh herbs for a touch of color and flavor.
8. Serve Hot: Serve the Baked Feta Roast Potatoes warm, letting the creamy feta blend perfectly with crisp potatoes.
With these steps, you’ll create an incredible dish that will satisfy everyone at the table.
