Pre-heat oven to 400°F
Wash and dry the baby potatoes and peel garlic cloves
Measure olive oil and seasonings into a large mixing bowl and stir to combine before adding potatoes and garlic cloves and mixing well to coat.
Spread whole potatoes and garlic evenly over a parchment lined baking tray, leaving space between them so that the vegetables roast rather than steam.
Roast potatoes and garlic initially for approximately 25 minutes before turning over the potatoes and garlic. We also like to rotate the baking tray 180° when placing it back in the oven. This will result in more even browning. Continue to roast for another 20 to 30 minutes or until potatoes are lightly browned and are fork tender.
If you slow roasted cherry tomatoes as part of this recipe, add them to the potato tray approximately 10 minutes before roasting is complete, to warm them up.
