Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Preheat oven to 220°C.
  2. Potato:

    In a large bowl, toss the potatoes with olive oil, rosemary, lemon zest, and juice. Season with a little salt and pepper. Transfer to a baking sheet and bake until tender, about 35 minutes.

  3. Blue Cheese Sauce:

    While the potatoes are cooking, melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the flour and cook, stirring constantly, until the flour begins to toast, about 3 minutes. Add the rosemary and nutmeg and cook, stirring, for another 15 seconds. Add the milk, bring to a boil, reduce the heat to low, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the liquid thickens slightly, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the cheese and 2 tablespoons of green onions.
  4. Transfer the potatoes to a large bowl. Drizzle with the cheese sauce and sprinkle with chopped Fresno, chopped parsley, and the remaining green onions.
