Ingredients (serves 4):

- 2 pounds of potatoes, peeled and cut into small cubes
- 1 head of garlic
- 2 tablespoons of olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)


Cooking Tips:

- Use a baking sheet that is large enough to hold the potatoes in a single layer. This will ensure that they cook evenly.
- Make sure to toss the potatoes in the olive oil and seasonings until they are well coated. This will help them to crisp up in the oven.
- Roast the garlic until it is golden brown and fragrant. This will bring out its natural sweetness and add depth of flavor to the dish.
Instructions:

1. Preheat the oven to 400°F.
2. Cut the top off the head of garlic to expose the cloves. Drizzle with olive oil and wrap in foil. Roast in the oven for 30-40 minutes, or until the garlic is golden brown and soft.
3. While the garlic is roasting, peel and cut the potatoes into small cubes. Toss them in a bowl with olive oil, salt, and pepper until well coated.
4. Spread the potatoes out in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast in the oven for 30-40 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
5. Once the garlic is done roasting, remove it from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Squeeze the roasted garlic cloves out of their skins and mash them with a fork.
6. Toss the roasted garlic with the potatoes and garnish with fresh parsley (optional).
