Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).

Place the peeled and cut potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water. Add 2 teaspoons of salt to the water. Bring to a boil and cook until the potatoes are fork-tender but not falling apart, about 8-10 minutes. They should still have some resistance.

Drain the potatoes completely in a colander. Let them sit for about 5 minutes to allow excess steam to escape.

Once slightly cooled, gently toss the potatoes in the colander. This will rough up their edges, creating more surface area for crispiness. Be careful not to mash them.

Drizzle 3 tablespoons of olive oil onto a large baking tray. Spread the roughed-up potatoes in a single layer on the tray.

Season the potatoes evenly with 1/2 teaspoon of salt, 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper, and 1 teaspoon of garlic powder.

Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.

Remove the tray from the oven. Add the fresh rosemary sprigs and smashed garlic cloves to the tray, distributing them among the potatoes.

Return the tray to the oven and continue baking for another 30 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy.

Serve immediately and enjoy your crispy baked potatoes!
