Good flavourful potatoes. Nice blend of spices with a garlicky edge and a mustardy tang. The only sub I made was to use olive oil. Very easy too.

    I wanted something other than mashed or baked potatoes for a dinner party. These were so good and easy to do. I prepared them in the morning and let them marinade in the spice mixture until I cooked them. Actually had good comments on it. Thanks MaeEast for helping out at my dinner party!!

    Good potatoes! The dijon flavor is very mild, as is the garlic- just enough to know it is there, and not enough to overpower the flavor of the tarragon. The only change I made was to turn the potatoes halfway through the cooking time (this helps them crisp up). Thanks for posting!

    Very good. I did not have any tarragon, but it still turned out really good.

    Really delicious! I doubled all the seasonings as I usually do, and parboiled the potatoes beforehand too. Also used a hotter oven and about 45 mins to crisp up, tho that might be because I have the worst oven ever! Ah, the joys of renting... Thanks for the recipe, will definately be used again!

    So easy and so good! I made this to go along with dinner tonight and my fiance really loved them. They came out perfectly crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and had nice flavor. I used Yukon Gold potatoes and garlic olive oil (we LOVE garlic!), and left out the tarragon as I had none in the house. I might increase the garlic, paprika and red pepper next time, though, because I like things a bit spicier. This is a real keeper. Thanks for sharing!

    We were split on these at home ~ DH & DD loved them, but they weren't my favorite way to eat potatoes. I'm not a big mustard fan and I think that's why I didn't care for them that much. I think that I would try these again, but maybe would reduce the amount of mustard.

    I make roasted potatoes fairly often, but have never tried with dijon mustard before. I really like it! I always just eyeball the hebs and spices and now I will keep in mind that I can add the mustard for nice twist

    Very good potatoes. i sprinkled with salt and pepper when they came out of the oven. No condiments needed; these were perfect. I substituted Italian herb seasoning for the tarragon.

    Hubby has an aversion to mustard, so unfortunately had to leave it out. This recipe was still good without it. I also used olive oil. Made it with a pork roast last night and it was a good side dish. Thanks for posting.
