Provided by Kate

Categories     Side Dish

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 tbsp Olive or canola oil
2 tbsp Butter
6 - 8 small Potatoes
Kosher Salt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees for convection or 400 degrees for standard. Put oil and butter in 11 x 17 casserole pan and place in oven to melt butter.
  • Wash and dry potatoes. Cut each in half. Cut lines in each potato in a hashtag pattern (crisscross).
  • Remove hot casserole dish from oven. Sprinkle a liberal amount of kosher salt across the bottom of the casserole pan and place potatoes, cut side down, in pan. Drizzle a bit of the oil - butter mix over the top of the potatoes and salt well.
  • Place potatoes in oven until cooked through, soft and well browned, about an hour, depending on the size of the potatoes.
  • If you are using a microwave safe casserole dish (no metal please!) you can microwave the potatoes before placing in the oven in order to shorten the cooking time. When I'm in a hurry, I often microwave the potatoes for 10 minutes on high before cooking. This will cut the cooking time in half.

A quick, easy and delicious way to prepare potatoes. If I'm feeling particularly calorie conscious (which doesn't happen as often as it should). I score the potatoes, spray with Pam and place sprayed side down on the non stick cookie sheet.) Either way, they're delicious.

CRISPIEST EVER POTATOES



Crispiest Ever Potatoes image

Somewhere between oven-roasted potatoes and crispy hash, these little creamer potatoes are boiled in water with baking soda before being smashed. The alkaline in the baking soda helps the skins crisp up quickly. Smashing increases their surface area and contact with the pan. The result is the crunchiest-ever crust.

Categories     side-dish

Time 1h45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2 pounds small creamer potatoes
1 tablespoon baking soda
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
5 cloves garlic, skins on, smashed
Leaves from 5 sprigs fresh thyme
Leaves from 1 sprig fresh rosemary

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
  • Add the potatoes to a large saucepan and cover with cold water by 1 inch. Add the baking soda and 1 tablespoon salt to the water. Cover, place over medium-high heat and bring to a boil. Uncover and continue to boil until the potatoes give easily when pierced with the tip of a knife, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain the potatoes and set the strainer over the top of the pan for a few minutes so the outsides of the potatoes can dry.
  • Dump the potatoes onto a baking sheet. Drizzle with the oil and toss with the garlic, thyme and rosemary until the potatoes are completely coated in the oil. Sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Using a small juice glass or glass bowl, smash each potato firmly but gently. (You want to just crack the skins and flatten slightly while keeping the potatoes mostly intact.)
  • Roast until the bottoms of the potatoes are deep golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and flip the potatoes using a spatula. Roast until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy on both sides, an additional 20 to 25 minutes. Transfer to a platter with a metal spatula. Serve while hot.

Diamond-Cut Roast Potatoes image

Time 1h10m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 (8 ounce) russet potatoes, peeled and halved lengthwise
1 tablespoon olive oil, or as needed
¼ teaspoon ground paprika
salt to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Slice a small piece off the round part of each potato half, so they sit flat on a surface with the large flat sides facing upwards. Score the flat sides in a diamond pattern, cutting down about 1/2 inch and being careful not to cut all the way through.
  • Drizzle 1/2 of the oil over the diamond cuts, sprinkle with 1/2 of the paprika, and season with salt. Place potatoes, seasoned side down, on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle the other side with the remaining oil, paprika, and salt.
  • Roast in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Flip potatoes and roast until cooked through, about 30 more minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: Yukon Gold, Red Bliss, and fingerling potatoes are all good choices for roasting. They hold their shape well and have a creamy texture when cooked.
  • Cut the potatoes evenly: This will help them cook evenly. If you are using a mandoline, be sure to adjust the blade so that the slices are about 1/4-inch thick.
  • Toss the potatoes with oil and seasonings: This will help them crisp up and develop flavor. You can use olive oil, melted butter, or even cooking spray. Be sure to season the potatoes with salt, pepper, and any other herbs or spices you like.
  • Roast the potatoes in a hot oven: This will help them get crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Aim for a temperature of 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: If you overcrowd the pan, the potatoes will steam instead of roast. Spread them out in a single layer so that they can cook evenly.
  • Roast the potatoes until they are tender: You can check this by piercing them with a fork. They should be tender all the way through, but not mushy.
  • Serve the potatoes immediately: Roasted potatoes are best served hot and crispy. You can garnish them with fresh herbs, such as parsley or thyme.

Conclusion:

Crisscross roasted potatoes are a delicious and easy side dish that can be served with a variety of meals. They are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and they are full of flavor. With a few simple tips, you can make perfect crisscross roasted potatoes every time.
