🌟 Tips for Extra Crispy Potatoes
-
Parboil first: Boil potato chunks 5 minutes before roasting for fluffier inside.
-
Don’t overcrowd: Give potatoes space on the tray to crisp evenly.
-
Use high heat: 425–450°F (220–230°C) is ideal for crispy edges.
These roasted potatoes are a perfect match with roasted chicken, steak, or even breakfast eggs.
