These potatoes were great! i took sharon123's advice and left the foil off for the last 10 minutes and also stired them around. They were so tender and tasty!! I was worried that the oil and the butter would be too much- but it wasnt. We will be having them again soon!! Thanks for sharing!

This is a great recipe but I had to cook my potatoes much longer than what was recommended by the recipe. Next time I will try cooking them at 425 instead of 375. I think that 375 may be a bit low for roasting potatoes. The seasoning was very nice, thanks for posting.

The dish was very good. I added garlic with the spices and sprinkled with parmesan when it was done. Only problem was the time was way off. I did 30 min at 375 and then bumped it up to 425 for the last 10 min with my asparagus, and the potatoes were still not cooked all the way. Since all my food was done I had to throw them in the mircrowave for 5 min to finish cooking.

Totally delicious! I loved the subtle flavor of the rosemary. Really fragrant and perfect with the potatoes. I served them with our Valentine's dinner celebration along with steak and beets and a salad. Very easy to make too! ~ Update: 9/19/07...made them tonight with sloppy joes. Great side dish for many meals. I added additional season salt after they were done.

A super side dish! Made these this past Saturday (11/12) for my future MIL's b-day dinner per request of my fiancé. I expected I might have leftovers due to some picky eaters, but there wasn't a potato chunk remaining when we were done. Easy to prepare and definitely easy to eat!
