This recipe combines the creamy richness of cheese with the distinctive flavour of ranch seasoning, creating a mouth-watering treat that pairs beautifully with a variety of mains.

To begin, preheat your oven to 200°C (180°C for fan ovens). Peel and chop a kilogram of baby potatoes into bite-sized pieces, ensuring they cook evenly. In a large mixing bowl, combine the potatoes with a generous drizzle of olive oil, a packet of ranch seasoning mix, and a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Toss everything together until the potatoes are thoroughly coated.

Transfer the seasoned potatoes to a baking tray, spreading them out in an even layer. Bake for approximately 30 to 35 minutes, or until they are golden brown and tender. Just before serving, sprinkle a generous handful of grated cheese over the hot potatoes and return them to the oven for a few minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbling.

Serve these delicious Cheesy Ranch Potatoes with a dollop of sour cream and a sprinkling of chopped chives for an extra touch. They’re not just easy to make; they’re bound to be a hit at your dinner table!
