This flavor combination is reminiscent of potato pierogi but with roasted tiny potatoes and red onion rounds. Drag each herb-covered potato and onion bite through a swoosh of sour cream before eating to get the full effect.

Recipe information

  • Yield

    4–6 servings

Ingredients

1½ lb. tiny potatoes (such as creamers or peewees)
2 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for onions
¾ tsp. garlic powder
¼ tsp. sumac
1 tsp. Diamond Crystal or ½ tsp. Morton kosher salt, plus more
Freshly ground black pepper
2 small or 1 medium red onions, sliced into ½"-thick rounds, layers separated
⅓ cup sour cream
¼ cup (packed) coarsely chopped mixed tender herbs (such as parsley, dill, and/or chives)

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 450°. Place potatoes on a rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle 2 Tbsp. oil over, sprinkle with garlic powder, sumac, and 1 tsp. Diamond Crystal or ½ tsp. Morton kosher salt, and season with pepper. Toss to coat, then arrange potatoes in an even layer. Roast until nearly tender and beginning to brown in spots, 18–22 minutes.

    Step 2

    Meanwhile, place onions in a medium bowl. Drizzle a little oil over and season with salt and pepper; toss to coat.

    Step 3

    Carefully remove potatoes from oven and shake baking sheet to turn potatoes and scoot to one side. Arrange onions in a single layer in empty space on baking sheet; reserve bowl. Return baking sheet to oven and roast potatoes and onions until potatoes are browned and fork-tender and onions are charred around the edges, 13–17 minutes. Let cool slightly.

    Step 4

    Scoop sour cream into reserved bowl; season with salt and pepper. Spread sour cream onto a platter or into a large shallow bowl and top with potatoes and onions. Scatters herbs over and sprinkle generously with pepper.
