This is a solid, good, basic recipe. I didn't know how to roast potatoes; now I do. This will go into the recipe book I make for my daughter when she leaves home.

These were so good, and so easy to make! I threw the seasonings and potatoes in a ziploc bag to coat, and placed them on a foil-lined baking sheet sprayed with pam so i wouldn't have to clean up. They came out crispy on the outside and soft and crumbly inside. Delicious! I even re-heated the leftovers this morning and had them with scrambled eggs and ketchup. Thanks for a simple, tasty treat.

I used 3 large Ilam Hardy potatoes (not red) cooked for about 1 hour and served 4 adults. The lemon is the key to a tasty non greasy roast potato. Thanks for posting.

Excellent recipe, very good taste, and the lemon adds a little tang. Wife loved it (note: I am a male who does not consider himself to be a good cook without a step by step recipe). This was very easy to make and it is now in my recipe file.
