These garlicky, herb and mustard roasted potatoes are baked to crispy perfection. This Whole30 and paleo side dish takes just minutes to throw together for an easy weeknight dinner and are delicious enough to be a crowd pleaser at any holiday meal. The potato side dish requires only a handful of simple ingredients, 30 minutes in the oven and reheats great for leftovers or breakfast.
Potatoes are hands down one of my favorite foods. There’s no type of potato I don’t like. However, roasted potatoes that are perfectly crispy on the outside and tender on the inside that have been baked with the best combination of butter and herbs will always be a go-to. Add a bit of mustard into the mix and you can’t go wrong.
These roasted potatoes are tossed in a quick homemade mixture made from ghee, garlic, mustard and herbs. The mustard I prefer to use for roasted potatoes is a grainy variety, my favorite being the stone ground mustard from Thrive Market is my favorite. It’s thick and chunky and less than $2.
These Whole30 mustard roasted potatoes take all of 5 minutes to whip together, starting first by combining the ghee and mustard mixture. The ghee here doesn’t have to be completely melted, but you do want it to be soft. If your ghee is at room temperature it should be soft enough without being solid and that will do just fine. If it is solid, you’ll want to microwave it for a few seconds to make it easier to both mix with the other ingredients and also to coat the potatoes.
The ghee I use and prefer is also from Thrive Market. It’s the cheapest per ounce I’ve found and a great quality. However, you can also find it at Target, Whole Foods, Walmart, Trader Joe’s, and most grocery stores, or on Amazon. Even more cost effective is making your own ghee (check out my easy slow cooker ghee recipe).

Once everything is mixed together, you’re going to add that to the potatoes and make sure to coat them well. Any potato variety will do here. I prefer the smaller fingerling potatoes, golden potatoes or red potatoes. Try to cut them to roughly the same size so they cook evenly, and then place them cut side down onto a baking sheet after they’ve been tossed with the buttery mixture. If you’re wanting to double the recipe, you may need two baking sheets to avoid over-crowding.
These roasted Whole30 mustard potatoes are best reheated in the oven as leftovers, or repurposed into a breakfast hash, egg bake, or skillet dinner. I love when I have these left for my “clean out the fridge” meals because they pretty much go with any veggie and meat all tossed into a frittata or heated with leftover chicken, peppers, onions and a sauce in the skillet!

Would coconut oil work as a substitute for ghee? Or any other ideas for substitutes other than clarified butter? Thanks in advance!
Reply
paleobailey says
Yes you could use any other type of oil as an alternative. I might not use coconut oil as it has a strong taste and might be a bit off with the mustard and herbs. It will change the flavor a bit being it won’t have the nutty, buttery taste from the ghee but they’ll still be good if you use olive or avocado oil!!

Not sure a lot of the stone ground mustard is whole30, so read the ingredients. Maybe use dijon instead?

Just wanted to say that my husband and I make these all the time and they are incredible! Our favorite dish to make them as a side to is grilled salmon. Yum! Something about the flavors of the mustard with the salmon really hits the spot. Thanks for another great recipe, Bailey!

We aren’t paleo or following a whole30 diet, but the photo looked good and the recipe was, indeed, delicious! We will be making them again. I might add a little more mustard next time. Or at least look for another, more flavorful brand. I also added minced shallots because I had some leftover.

Would this recipe be good for sweet potatoes to make it paleo?
Reply
paleobailey says
You could try it! I haven’t, so I can’t say for certain how they’d turn out. That being said, I’ll leave some links for you to check out on why all potatoes have been considered to be included in Paleo for around 10 years now by most of the Paleo thought leaders such as Mark Sisson and Robb Wolf.

Thank you for the articles I’m only just dipping my toe into paleo. It would be great if potatoes could be an in food for paleo (they’re my mom’s favourite carb). I’ll definitely be giving this a try with regular potatoes if they’re are back on the menu.
