Roasted Garlic Potatoes
serves 4-6
A pan of warm roasted potatoes is the perfect side dish to any winter meal. If you have some left over, try mixing them with some meat and onions to make a stir-fry of turkey, potatoes and sweet onions.
This recipe is part of Andrew Schloss's Sunday Dinners.
8 large russet potatoes, scrubbed (about 5 pounds)
Olive oil
