No one will be able to resist this dish. It tastes so flavorful and so savory that anyone who will get to taste it will become instantly addicted to it. It’s the perfect side dish to any meat recipe you will serve as the main course. Eat these potatoes as an appetizer or as a savory companion to your entree. My family enjoys them for breakfast with scrambled eggs. Yummo!
I love bacon because it has this extremely flavorful essence that doesn’t fail to make something extraordinarily delicious. It tastes good with anything, including these potatoes, which absorb the flavor of the bacon better. Yes, this is one side dish you will love.

Quick Tip: Partly boil the potatoes in step 2 to reduce the roasting time. If you do not wish to do so, you can use raw potatoes but increase the roasting time to about 40 minutes, or until the potato skin is wrinkled.
