Oven potatoes - overall

So I decided to re-write the recipe that I had called "baked potato bites", as this is currently the official and only way I ever make "fried" potatoes - I make them in the oven. Let me make a statement here: I love potatoes. No, I LOVE POTATOES. That's more like it. I make them mashed, boiled, cooked in a sauce, in the oven the traditional way (ie with some water, olive oil and spices, so that they get cooked), and I love, love, love fried potatoes.

But I hate, hate, hate the tons of oil needed to adequately fry potatoes, and I don't own and never want to own a deep fryer. I have posted several recipes with potatoes "fried" in the oven, with lots of different ingredients (peppers, ham, plain etc), but here I'll just write the basic recipe to get really nice potatoes made in the oven and, in time, I'll add all the different spice mixes that I use.

An appropriate photo will be uploaded soon. I had these potatoes today with salmon and spinach, but they disappeared before the thought of writing this hit me :D

Time you'll need to make this: 50 minutes
Difficulty level: easy

Ingredients (for 2 portions):
- 12 small potatoes
- olive oil
- salt
