Ingredients

1/2 cup olive oil
6 small russet potatoes, cut in half lengthwise

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Pour olive oil onto a baking sheet and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Press a sprig of rosemary onto the cut side of each potato half and place cut side down on the baking sheet. Bake until the potatoes are nicely browned, 40-45 minutes. Arrange them on a platter and serve immediately.

Variation: Other fresh herbs may be substituted, such as sage, thyme or Italian parsley. Or, use a combination of several herbs.
