Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: Russet potatoes are the best choice for crispy oven-baked potatoes, as they have a high starch content that helps them crisp up nicely. You can also use Yukon Gold or red potatoes, but they may not get as crispy.
  • Cut the potatoes evenly: This will help them cook evenly and prevent some pieces from being overcooked while others are still undercooked.
  • Soak the potatoes in cold water: This will help to remove excess starch and make the potatoes crispier.
  • Toss the potatoes in oil and seasonings: This will help them to brown and develop flavor.
  • Bake the potatoes at a high temperature: This will help them to crisp up quickly and evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the baking sheet: This will prevent the potatoes from cooking evenly.
  • Flip the potatoes halfway through cooking: This will help them to brown evenly on all sides.

Conclusion:

Crispy oven-baked potatoes are a delicious and easy side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of meals. By following the tips above, you can make sure that your potatoes are crispy, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy side dish, give these crispy oven-baked potatoes a try.
