Great recipe Bethie. Thank you so much for sharing this lovely recipe. We really enjoyed this tasty dish. My oven tends to run hot, so everything turns out darker and a little crisper. That didn't effect these tasty potatoes in anyway. Made for Best of 2013 Tag Game.

Total yum factor here. I had breakfast for lunch yesterday and these potatoes were the high point by a mile. The humble turkey bacon and egg were honored to be on the same plate with this delicious "side" dish. It's a star.

Very delicious! I used a homemade ras el hanout and served the potatoes with Mirj's cumin meatballs and a simple side salad. We were low on provisions due to snow but luckily I had plenty of potatoes on hand! This would be yummy for breakfast with a dollop of yogurt! Made for Recipe Swap #83 in Australian forum.

Prepared this as side dish for dinner.<br/>I used small unpeeled young potatoes (preecooked as described) and I added to the recipe 1 zucchini diced (same size as potatoes). <br/>Precooking the potatoes is very important: in this was the potatoes were really through, the skin dud not burn and we fully enjoyed the the full flawor of the spices.<br/>I used a wide tray, in order to let evaporate the juice of the zucchini.<br/>Thanks a lot for this recipe, we really this dish very much!

We loved these potatoes. Great flavor without being overwhelming. I was shorter on time, so I quartered my potatoes for faster cooking. I used a homemade ras el hanout. I wasn't sure how much olive oil to use, so decided on approx 2 T which worked well. Made for Famly Picks ZWT9 for the Soup-A-Stars team
