Slow Cooker Roast Potatoes

Slow Cooker Roast Potatoes Recipe

Ingredients:

• 2 pounds (about 1 kg) baby potatoes, washed and halved
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Potatoes:
   • Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly and cut them in half. If using larger potatoes, cut them into quarters to ensure even cooking.
2. Season the Potatoes:
   • In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, dried rosemary, dried thyme, paprika, salt, and pepper.
   • Add the potatoes to the bowl and toss until they are evenly coated with the oil and seasoning mixture.
3. Slow Cook:
   • Transfer the seasoned potatoes to the slow cooker.
   • Cover and cook on the LOW setting for 4-5 hours, or until the potatoes are tender. If you prefer a slightly crispier texture, you can cook them on HIGH for 2-3 hours.
4. Finish and Serve:
   • Once the potatoes are cooked, you can sprinkle some fresh parsley on top for a burst of color and added flavor.
   • Serve the roast potatoes hot as a side dish.

Tips:

• For extra crispy potatoes, you can transfer them to a baking sheet and place them under the broiler for a few minutes after they are done cooking in the slow cooker.
• Feel free to adjust the seasoning to your taste. Adding a pinch of cayenne pepper can give the potatoes a slight kick.
• These roast potatoes pair well with a variety of main dishes, from roast chicken to grilled steak.
