Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F), or 180°C if using a fan-forced oven.

In a small bowl, combine the grated Parmesan, garlic powder, dried herbs (oregano or thyme), paprika, salt, and black pepper to create the seasoning mixture.

Drizzle the olive oil into a 9x13 inch (22x33cm) glass baking dish. Tilt the dish to ensure the oil completely and evenly coats the entire base.

Evenly scatter the Parmesan mixture over the oiled base of the dish using a spoon. Once the mixture is sprinkled, do not stir or attempt to spread it further.

Place the halved baby potatoes cut-side down onto the cheese mixture, pressing each one down firmly to ensure the potato makes good contact with the seasoning.

Optional: Lightly spray or drizzle the tops of the potatoes with a touch of oil and add a small pinch of extra salt.
