What potatoes should I use?
The choice is yours as to what kind of potatoes to use in this recipe.
All potatoes are great for roasting.
Even sweet potatoes although I wouldn’t necessarily recommend them for this recipe.
I’m not sure the dill and lemon would be a great combination for them.
But hey, you do you!
So use whatever kind you’d like.
Can I make these lemon and dill roasted potatoes in the air fryer?
You absolutely can make these potatoes in the air fryer.
Instead of popping them into the oven place them into the air fryer in a single layer.
Set the air fryer to 380° and cook them for about 20-25 minutes.
Give the basket a nice big shake around the 10 minute mark.
Once the potatoes are nice and crisped up just follow the recipe as it goes from there.

How can I reheat these lemon and dill roasted potatoes?

Just preheat the oven to 400° and place the potatoes in a single layer baking sheet.
Cover them with tin foil and bake them for about 10-15 minutes.
Lemon and Dill Roasted Potatoes Ingredients
- Potatoes
- Olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Garlic powder
- Butter
- Lemon
- Lemon zest
- Fresh dill
Instructions
First, preheat the oven to 400° and place the baking sheet inside the oven to preheat also.
In the meantime, rinse and dry your potatoes and cut them into about 1 inch pieces.
Now place the cut potatoes into a bowl.
Then drizzle the potatoes with olive oil and season them with salt, pepper and garlic powder.
Next give the potatoes a good toss to make sure they’re evenly coated in the oil and seasoning.
After that carefully take out the hot preheated baking sheet and add the potatoes to it in a single layer.
Then bake them for about 25 minutes or until they’re crispy on all sides. I like to use a spatula and toss them around about half way through.
While those are in the oven, prepare the butter, lemon and dill topping.
In a small bowl, melt the butter in the microwave.
Then add the lemon juice, lemon zest, and fresh chopped dill.
Now mix it all together and pour it over the roasted potatoes.
Finally transfer them to a serving dish and serve warm. Enjoy!
