Roasted Mustard Potatoes

My roasted potato saga continues with a mustard version. A thick and creamy mustard dressing works like magic to form a crispy coating over cubed potatoes that is insanely flavorful.

The dressing base starts with mustard and also has butter, olive oil, lemon, oregano and parmesan cheese. A wickedly delicious combination. One that brings out the best in potatoes. Crunchy on the outside and soft in the middle.

If you’re not a mustard-lover or even a mustard-liker you might be tempted to completely ignore this recipe. Don’t. You’ll miss out on something wonderful. The mustard “flavor” is barely discernible in the finished product. It blends itself right in with the other ingredients.

Roasted potatoes are the easiest of side dishes to make and so versatile! Not only do they go with everything, they have a natural ability to take a mundane meal and elevate it into something special.

This mustard version promises to become one of those favorites that goes into permanent rotation. I can’t rave enough about them. They’re a crowd pleaser. I promise.

    I saw this on Pinterest and i’m so glad i clicked! i am a big fan of roasted potatoes and am always looking out for different flavours/ingredients to add. What a pleasant surprise this recipe turned out to be. So much more than just mustard — parmesan+lemon+oregano = drooling. :)

    I found this recipe today on Pinterest and had to try it. My husband and I both loved this dish. I think next time I will try using fresh rosemary for the herb, instead of oregano. It’s easy to get in a rut with potatoes, so I’m pleased to have this new recipe!
