Here’s a simple, crispy, and flavorful way to make roasted potatoes that go with almost anything:
🥔 Crispy Roasted Potatoes
🔹 Ingredients
- 2 lbs (900 g) potatoes (Yukon Gold or Russet work best)
- 2–3 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp garlic powder or 2 cloves fresh garlic, minced
- 1 tsp dried rosemary or thyme (optional)
- Optional: paprika or chili flakes for extra flavor
🔹 Instructions
1. Prep the potatoes
- Wash and peel if desired
- Cut into 1–2 inch chunks for even roasting
2. Season
- Toss potatoes with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic, and herbs
3. Roast
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C)
- Spread potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet
- Roast 25–35 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and crispy
4. Serve
- Optional: sprinkle with fresh parsley or a little grated parmesan
- Serve hot as a side to chicken, steak, fish, or just on their own
🔹 Tips for Extra Crispy Potatoes
- Don’t overcrowd the pan—air circulation is key
- Parboil potatoes for 5–7 minutes before roasting for even crispiness
- Use high heat (425–450°F / 220–230°C) for a golden crust
