Instructions: If the potatoes are large, cut in half so they are about 1"/2.5 cm. In a large bowl, toss potatoes with olive oil, salt, pepper and rosemary. Place on baking sheet lined with parchment paper and roast at 400F for about 45 minutes to one hour, or until browned and crisp and tender.

For the aioli, squeeze garlic out of shell into a food processor or blender. Add cheese, vinegar, pepper and thyme. Blend in oil. Adjust seasoning and salt to taste. Place in a small bowl.

Arrange parsley or rosemary on a serving platter as a base.

Place bowl with aioli just off center. Surround with potatoes. Garnish with lemon slices. Serve with toothpicks.

ROASTED GARLIC: Cut top 1/4 off the head of raw garlic. Place on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper, cut side down. Roast in a preheated 350F/180C oven for 30 minutes. Turn cut side up, cover loosely with aluminum foil and roast 15 to 30 minutes longer or until garlic is very tender when squeezed. Or, wrap garlic in foil and bake 45 to 60 minutes at 350F/180C until very tender.
