How to Make Oven-Roasted Blue Potatoes with Red Onions

This recipe for how to make oven-roasted blue potatoes is unique and beautiful! The purple hues of the blue potatoes and red onions will stand out on your plate when contrasted with something warm-toned. These little blue creamer potatoes are a bluish purple on the outside and then inside is yellow like a Yukon gold potato. I have a very similar recipe available if you don’t have blue potatoes at your grocery store which uses russet potatoes. I hope you love this recipe and please let me know in the comments what you think and if you have any ideas for me to cook up! Sending love to you all!

Ingredients (serves 2)

12 baby blue creamer potatoes

1/2 tsp Italian seasoning

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 425°F
2. Cut the blue creamer potatoes in half and pour them into a large bowl
3. Peel the onion and cut it into long thick slices (sort of like cutting an apple into slices, but thinner width), add to bowl
4. Add olive oil and seasoning to the bowl and toss everything until combined (you can use a spoon or even just use your hands to toss)
5. Divide mixture evenly onto two medium-sized baking sheets (one large one is also fine), create one thin layer
6. bake potatoes on the center oven rack for 22 minutes, remove from the oven and use a spatula to toss them
7. broil for 4 minutes on high, use a spatula to serve them on plates, or place them in a serving bowl.

Tips: You can really get creative with this recipe for oven-roasted blue potatoes with onions if you want to. Like it spicy? Try adding 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper to the mix. Cumin also tastes amazing on these potatoes! Love onions? Add 2 instead of one! Love cheese? sprinkle some on and broil for one minute in the end! It’s important that you toss the potatoes at least once to prevent them from burning.
