Roast the Potatoes: Spread the coated potatoes cut-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Roast them in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping them halfway through for even browning.

Garnish for Presentation: Fresh parsley and extra Parmesan not only add flavor but also make the dish visually appealing, perfect for serving at dinner parties or holiday gatherings.
Storage Tips:
Refrigeration: Store any leftover potatoes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. Make sure to cool them to room temperature before sealing.
Reheating: To maintain their crispiness, reheat the potatoes in the oven at 375°F (190°C) for about 10 minutes or until warmed through. Avoid microwaving, as this may make the potatoes soggy.
Freezing: These potatoes can be frozen for up to 2 months. Place them on a baking sheet in a single layer and freeze until solid, then transfer to a freezer-safe bag or container. Reheat directly from frozen in the oven at 400°F (200°C) for 15-20 minutes.

FAQs:
Can I use a different type of potato for this recipe?
Yes! While baby potatoes work best for this recipe due to their size and creamy texture, you can also use Yukon Gold, red potatoes, or even russet potatoes. Just make sure to cut them into similar-sized pieces to ensure even cooking.
How do I make these potatoes extra crispy?

Can I make these potatoes ahead of time?
Yes, you can prepare the potatoes in advance by tossing them in the garlic butter mixture and storing them in the fridge for up to a day before roasting. You can also fully roast them ahead of time and reheat in the oven at 375°F (190°C) for 10 minutes before serving.
Can I make this recipe dairy-free
