TOMATO ROAST POTATOES

This is a surprisingly delicious side dish. The preparation is minimal and at 400F the potatoes are ready within 40 minutes. However, it is imperative to prepare the baking dish with cooking spray. You can grease the baking dish or add copious amounts of oil; in fact your potatoes could be swimming in grease and they will still stick to the dish without the cooking spray. Use fresh thyme leaves or dried, both work fine. I wouldn’t add basil though; basil would overpower the delicate flavours. Use fresh tomatoes with their skin on, the skin keeps the tomato pieces intact.

TOMATO ROAST POTATOES 
4-6 red or Yukon Gold potatoes with the skin on
2 cups fresh tomatoes, diced with the skin on
1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
salt to taste
cooking spray
1/4 tsp thyme

• Preheat the oven to 400F.
• Spray a large baking dish with cooking spray. Set aside.
• Scrub the potatoes and chop them.
• Wash and dice the tomatoes, do not discard the juice.
• Place the potatoes and tomatoes in a large mixing bowl.
• Add the oil, salt and toss to coat. Resist the urge to add more oil, it’s not needed.
• Sprinkle the top with thyme and bake for 35-40 minutes.
• Remove when the potatoes are tender.

It began with posting a few recipes on line for the family. "zsuzsa is in the kitchen" has more than 1000 Hungarian and International recipes. What started out as a private project turned into a well visited blog. The number of visitors long passed the two million mark. I organized the recipes into an on-line cookbook. On top of the page click on "ZSUZSA'S COOKBOOK". From there click on any of the chapters to access the recipes. For the archive just scroll to the bottom of the page. I am not profiting from my blog, so visitors are not harassed with advertising or flashy gadgets. The recipes are not broken up with photos at every step. Where needed the photos are placed following the recipe. Feel free to cut and paste my recipes for your own use. Publication is permitted as long as it is in your own words and with your own photographs. However, I would ask you for an acknowledgement and link-back to my blog. Happy cooking!
