Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes. Waxy potatoes, such as Yukon Gold or Red Bliss, hold their shape better than starchy potatoes, such as Russet or Idaho, when cooked. This makes them ideal for roasting, grilling, or pan-frying.
- Cut the potatoes and squash into similar-sized pieces. This will help them cook evenly.
- Season the potatoes and squash generously. Salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder are all good choices.
- Roast the potatoes and squash at a high temperature. This will help them get crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
- Stir the potatoes and squash occasionally. This will prevent them from sticking to the pan.
- Serve the potatoes and squash immediately. They are best when they are hot and crispy.
Conclusion:
Potato and summer squash are a delicious and versatile combination that can be enjoyed in many different ways. Whether you are roasting them, grilling them, or pan-frying them, these two vegetables are sure to please everyone at your table.
