“Er ma gosh.”
That translates to “Oh my goodness this is one of my favorite side dishes ever.” At least that I’ve posted on ESJ. I’m obsessed with this recipe…I made it with zero expectations and it turned out amazing.
Don’t you love when that happens?
It usually has me speaking with my mouth full, saying things like “Er ma gosh.” And getting weird looks. We’ve all been there.
I don’t think it can get much easier…slice your veggies. Mince your garlic.
Mix with oil, sage, salt and pepper.
Lie on a baking sheet.
…wait for it…
…bake ’em. {Did you see that one coming? You readers are just so smart.}
Garnish with fennel fronds, the greens, and serve hot.
I served these alongside chicken.
I ate what was left with some bacon and an egg. Fancy breakfast potatoes…because I’m so fancy.
Seriously, these are worthy of talking with your mouth full. They are perfect for entertaining. They are absolutely.ridiculously.can’t have enough.delicious.

I eat fennel any chance I have, and bet it tastes amazing roasted and combined with potatoes. I see why this is a favorite!
This looks like the perfect side dish for many dinners. Love roasted potatoes. The addition of fennel is great. Roasted veggies are the best (besides grilled of course).
They really are!
As a potato and easy recipe lover, this looks amazing! How great that it can be served as a side for dinner or breakfast.
Yes! Completely agree!
