Red potatoes are smaller than the usual russet potatoes that I use, and the red potatoes skin is smoother. While I like to use russet potatoes when I am making mashed potatoes or french fries. But red potatoes are best for pan fried potatoes or like these oven roasted red potatoes. They are crispy with tons of garlic flavor, making them a delicious way to eat potatoes. These potatoes are both vegan and gluten-free, so they go well with any diet. With very little prep work involved, these potatoes are the perfect simple side dish to go with any main dish.
There is no need to peel the potatoes, they are baked with the skin on. Cut the potatoes into 1-inch cubes and place them into a large plastic bag. Drizzle with olive oil, minced garlic, salt, pepper and garlic powder. Shake the bag to fully coat the potatoes. Spread out the mixture into a large baking dish in a single layer. Roast in the oven for 40-45 minutes until the potatoes are browned and crispy.
