    These are wonderful potatoes! I used some Mediterranean oregano instead of the tarragon and 3 large red potatoes but otherwise made as posted. The red pepper flakes give it a nice zing. The potatoes were done in about 30 minutes (I cut into 1 inch cubes or so. I know I will be using this recipe many times. Thanks for posting a keeper! Made and reviewed for PAC, Fall 2007

    Great potatoes! We loved these! I added a little more garlic than the recipe stated, but I love garlic! Made for Zaar World Tour.

    These were excellent!! Nice and crispy with a touch of heat. This is a keeper in my cookbook. Made it as a side dish and prepared it without any changes. (well, "OK I did increase the red peppers to 1/4 tsp"). Thanks dicooks for posting! Update: Well, what do you know, I made this dish again but I did make a change. I used sweet potatoes this time. They came out oh! so tender and with the same excellent flavor. I just don't understand why nobody else is trying this dish. It's a must make! (Hello, are you out there?) Thanks, again dicentra (dicooks) for posting
