Wash the potatoes by rubbing them well with a brush to remove any dirt present. Put them in salted boiling water for 10 minutes.

Add the peeled garlic clove and the chopped rosemary. Transfer the pan to a preheated oven at 200 ° and cook the potatoes for about 30 minutes.

 Salt with a pinch of salt only towards the end of cooking.

Remove from the oven and immediately serve the baked potatoes directly from the baking dish.
