Whether you need a great side for the upcoming holiday dinners, or just need to whip up something to go along chicken/meat/fish, roasted potatoes always come to rescue you.

I make roasted potatoes on a weekly basis, mainly simply seasoned with salt and pepper and a few fresh rosemary sprigs.

This time, however, I've decided to give a bit of a twist to my usual potatoes, and pack them with extra truffle pesto flavour.

For this recipe, I've teamed up with Sacla’, to show you how easy it is to make a showstopping side dish with minimum efforts.

If you like bold flavours as much as I do, adding Sacla’ Truffle Pesto to your roasted potatoes is guaranteed to amaze your taste-buds.

You can also play with the flavour and try one of the other 6 different Sacla' pesto flavours: Classic Basil, Sun-Dried Tomato,  Roasted Pepper, Fiery Chilli, Char-Grilled Aubergine and Fresh Coriander. 

I'm sure they would all go along pretty well with these simple roasted potatoes.

Ingredients and Instructions

The recipe for these Truffle Pesto Roasted Potatoes couldn't be easier.

All you need is 3 simple ingredients:

• baby potatoes
• Sacla’ truffle pesto
• extra virgin olive oil

Simply split the baby potatoes into half, toss with extra virgin olive oil, truffle pesto, salt and pepper, and get them into a hot oven.

With little effort, you’ll get beautifully crispy potatoes with a heart-warming fall taste. Simple things are always a winner!

These crispy potato bites have a creamy center and are loaded with flavour-packed truffle pesto.

Believe me when I say they're totally addicting. 

Few of my favourite ways to serve include these light Lemon Chicken Skewers and this awesome Mediterranean-style Prosciutto Wrapped Cod.

These super easy roasted potatoes will make a fantastic side to serve on special occasions such as Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's Eve.

But they're also simple and quick enough to whip up for a weeknight dinner!
