Ingredients
Scale
- 4 large potatoes (peeled and diced)
- 3 garlic cloves (minced)
- 2 thick bacon strips (cut into pieces)
- 2 tablespoons honey
- Olive oil (for roasting)
- Salt and cracked black pepper
Instructions
- Boil the diced potatoes in salted water for about 8 minutes until just tender. Drain well.
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) with a lightly oiled baking sheet inside.
- Spread the drained potatoes on the hot baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Roast for 30 minutes, flipping halfway through.
- While the potatoes roast, cook bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Add minced garlic and stir for another minute before mixing in honey. Remove from heat.

- Serve warm, garnished with chopped parsley.
