We had a bag of Aunt Mid's sitting around from the holiday cooking and I decided to try the recipes on the back of the bag. Did not expect it to be as delicious as they were!
We made the Zesty Roasted Reskins (potato skins) & the Garlicky Baby Reds (garlic potatoes). The ones cut in half are the potato skins & the whole red potatoes are the garlic potatoes. They took a total of 40 minutes to cook, because both cooked at 400 degree. The recipe follows...
Zesty Roasted Red Skins
1 3lb bag AUNT MID's Red Skin Potatoes
3 Tabsp Olive Oil
3 Tbsp of your favorite steak seasoning
Prep took 5 - 10 minutes
Bake for 20 minutes
Instruction:
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees
Rinse potatoes and pat dry with paper towels
Cut potatoes in half lengthwise.
Place in bowl and sprinkle with olive oil. {Since I only made about 1 lbs of potatoes, I just ensured the potatoes were wholly covered} Mix with your hand until potatoes are coated.
Place on cookie sheet, cut side up. Sprinkle with steak seasoning. {I did not measure my seasoning and just sprinkled liberally. It was deliciously zesty as a result!}
Bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes or until golden brown. {Check your oven temperature like always, because we ended up needing around 25 - 30 minutes due to the varying sizes of the potatoes}
Garlicky Baby Reds
2 lbs. Aunt Mid's Baby Red Potatoes
1/4 cup butter, melted
2 tsp minced garlic
1 tsp salt
1 tsp paprika
Juice of one small lemon
1 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
Prep 10 minutes
Bake 40 minutes
Preheat oven to 400 degrees
Place potatoes in a 8x8 inch baking dish {We only made 1 lbs so I used a bread loaf baking pan}
In a small bowl, combine melted butter, garlic, salt, paprika, and lemon juice.
Pour over potatoes and stir to coat. {My stirring was done by hand so the potatoes were coated thoroughly} Sprinkle Parmesan cheese over potatoes.
Cover and bake for 30 minutes. Uncover and bake an additional 10 minutes, or until golden brown. {I actually took it out after the 40 minutes, but the big piece on the top right could have used another 5 minutes at least}
The sauce that you make for these potatoes was also delightfully delicious for us to dip our rolls in. Nothing went to waste!
