Ingredients

Scale

Potatoes

1 lb baby gold potatoes, sliced into 1/2-inch rounds
2 tbsp olive oil
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/4 tsp black pepper

Toppings

1/2 cup sour cream
2 tbsp finely chopped chives
2–3 tbsp caviar
Optional: lemon zest for finishing

Instructions

Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and facilitate easy cleanup.
Prepare the potatoes: Toss the sliced baby gold potatoes with olive oil, kosher salt, and black pepper in a bowl until each slice is evenly coated.
Roast the potatoes: Arrange the potato rounds on the prepared baking sheet in a single even layer. Roast them in the oven for 20-22 minutes, turning them halfway through cooking to ensure they become golden brown and crisp on the edges.
Cool slightly: Once roasted, remove the potatoes from the oven and allow them to cool briefly so they are warm but not too hot for topping.
Add sour cream dollops: Place a small dollop of sour cream on each potato round, providing a creamy base for the caviar.
Top with caviar and chives: Spoon a small amount of caviar onto each sour cream-topped potato and sprinkle with finely chopped chives for added flavor and color.
Optional finishing touch: Garnish with a light sprinkle of lemon zest to add brightness and a fresh aroma before serving immediately.

Notes

For best results, use small baby gold potatoes that are uniform in size for even cooking.
If you prefer milder flavors, you can substitute caviar with finely chopped smoked salmon or a dollop of crème fraîche.
The lemon zest is optional but adds a wonderful fresh note that balances the richness of the caviar and sour cream.
These can be assembled shortly before serving to maintain the potatoes’ crisp texture.
Leftover roasted potatoes can be stored and reheated but should be topped with caviar fresh before serving.
