Roasted Potatoes Recipe
I like this recipe because roasted potatoes are such a versatile side dish that pairs well with just about any meal. They’re easy to prepare, and the classic flavor combination of butter, garlic, and fresh dill is so satisfying. This recipe is also very forgiving. It’s easy to customize; you can adjust the seasoning to your liking and add different herbs or spices to suit your style.
What to Serve with Roasted Dill Potatoes
Here are a few suggestions:
- Grilled or roasted entrees such as Grilled Polenta, Grilled BBQ Tofu, or Cauliflower Steak

- Salads with fresh greens, tomatoes, cucumbers, and a light vinaigrette dressing.
- Chickpea Salad Sandwiches or veggie burgers with a side of Coleslaw Pasta Salad
Ingredients for Roasted Dill Potatoes
You will need:
- 2 pounds baby potatoes, cut into halved or quarters
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons vegan butter
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1/4 cup fresh dill.
Ingredient Notes
- Baby Potatoes – Skin-on baby potatoes are a good choice for roasting because they cook quickly and evenly, and their small size means that they have a higher skin-to-flesh ratio, which creates a crispy texture. In contrast, larger potatoes such as Russets, with their higher starch content, are better suited for baking or mashing.
- Olive Oil – Preferred for its light flavor, olive oil helps to create a crispy exterior and prevents the potatoes from sticking to the pan.
- Vegan Butter – Adds rich and savory flavor while also helping to create a crispy exterior.
- Lemon Juice – Adds a bright and tangy flavor that complements the richness of the potatoes and other seasonings.
- Garlic – For this recipe, fresh garlic is best! Garlic powder is not recommended.
- Salt and Ground Black Pepper – The amounts given are guidelines. Adjust to suit your personal taste or dietary restrictions.
- Fresh Dill – Please use fresh dill for this recipe! It enhances the natural earthiness of the potatoes and adds a bright and herbaceous note to the dish that you just won’t get with dried dill.
How to Make Roasted Dill Potatoes
STEP ONE: Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil.
STEP TWO: Place cut potatoes in a large bowl. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, butter, lemon juice, garlic, salt, and pepper. Stir in the fresh dill.
STEP THREE: Pour the dill mixture over the potatoes and toss to coat thoroughly. Spread the potatoes in an even layer onto the prepared baking sheet.
STEP FOUR: Bake for 35 minutes, or until potatoes are lightly crisp and fork tender. Serve hot.
