Robyn's Crock Pot Herb Roasted Potatoes

"This is an easy side dish recipe for the crock pot. Adjust seasonings to your liking because I don't know if the measurements are exact. I also make these in the oven, just bake at 350 degrees for 30-45 minutes or until tender."

directions

  • Chop potatoes into half moons (slice potato in half longways, then into pieces). Place into crock pot.
  • Add water and sprinkle with all the herbs and seasoning. Stir to distribute the herbs.
  • Add butter in separate pieces on top of the potatoes.
  • Cover and cook on low for 5 hours or until tender.
  • Note: It may take less time to cook, I'm never home to check when they are actually ready! I've let them cook up to 8 hours and they are still good.

Questions & Replies

  1. Your photo is beautiful. Your potatoes look roasted, like the name suggests. Does the water cook away and do the potatoes brown in the remaining butter?
     
  2. do the potatoes have to be peeled?

  1. Update - I decided to turn this into a main dish by adding chicken. I marinated skinless chicken breasts in about 2 Tbsp olive oil and 1 Tbsp lemon juice and sprinkled on the same spices used in your recipe. The next day, I just put the breasts on top of the potatoes and cooked on low for 6-7 hours. It was delicious. Sept 7/09 Awesome roasted potatoes without heating up the kitchen! My guests loved them and two people asked for the recipe! I made exactly as written and wouldn't change a thing. After 5 hours on low, the potatoes were still too hard so I cranked it up to high for the last hour and they were just perfect. Made for Fall PAC 2009. Thx for sharing your recipe Robyn!
     
  2. I made these yesterday for the 4th of July. My kids don't do gluten or dairy, so sometimes it's hard to come up with a potato dish for a bbq that isn't mashed potatoes or baked. These fit the bill perfectly! After cooking about six hours, my crockpot went to warm, and they stayed perfectly until everything was ready to eat. There wasn't much left, but I took the leftovers this morning and browned them up a bit in a skillet with some onion pieces, and then added an egg and scrambled it into the potatoes. I think I'll make extra when I make this again, just to make that again!
     
  3. These potatoes were great! I loved making them in the crockpot. The combination of spices was just right. I substituted extra virgin olive oil for 1/2 of the butter for health reasons and I used fresh parsley instead of dried. Thanks for this great recipe!
     
  4. These were great! Very easy to put together. I left out the dill and instead of butter I used butter spray so I could reduce some of the calories. This was a great side dish with chicken. Thanks so much for posting!! :)
     
  5. Excellent!! I've made these 2 times and they were a hit. I'll be making them many more times I'm sure.

  1. We love this as is at our house , substituting margarine for butter when I can. I made a batch for a girls game night, and I served it with ranch or creamy parmesean salad dressing. There were NONE left at the end of the night! Also, I made them for another work dinner and everyone loved them.

I've been married for nine years, with two small children. I have always been a creative cook until my son was born. He was born with a lot of food allergies and is a picky-eater on top of it. So now when I find food he will eat, I can save it here to help me remember what he likes. <img src="http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e347/Saturn6666/KiwiDutch/3chefstag1.jpg">
