"SPECIAL" ROASTED POTATOES
The secret to these deliciously crusty potatoes is the pre-oven boiling in a salted and seasoned liquid. The potatoes not only absorb flavor and salt, but more importantly the surface of the potato cooks, which is what forms the great crunchy texture in the oven.

Steps:
- Place potatoes in a large pot with water. Bruise the rosemary with the dull side of a knife blade and place in the pot. Add garlic, bay leaves, and salt. Bring to a boil; simmer for 5 minutes. Drain; let potatoes air dry.
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- When potatoes are thoroughly dry, transfer them back to the pot. Drizzle with olive oil, cayenne pepper, and a pinch of salt. Stir to coat. Transfer potatoes to a rimmed sheet pan. Bake until potatoes are golden brown and crusty, and the flesh is creamy and soft, about 35 to 45 minutes, depending on the size of the potatoes.

Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes: For the best roasted potatoes, choose firm, starchy potatoes like Russet or Yukon Gold. These potatoes will hold their shape well and become crispy on the outside while remaining fluffy on the inside.
- Cut the potatoes evenly: Cutting the potatoes into uniform pieces will help them cook evenly. If the pieces are too large, they will take longer to cook and may not get crispy. If they are too small, they will cook too quickly and may burn.
- Toss the potatoes with oil and seasonings: Before roasting, toss the potatoes with olive oil, salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings. This will help them to brown and develop flavor.
- Roast the potatoes at a high temperature: Roasting the potatoes at a high temperature will help them to get crispy on the outside while remaining fluffy on the inside. The ideal temperature is 425°F (220°C).
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When roasting the potatoes, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly and becoming crispy.
- Roast the potatoes until they are golden brown: Roast the potatoes for 20-30 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. You can check if the potatoes are done by piercing them with a fork. If the fork goes through easily, the potatoes are done.
Conclusion:
Roasted potatoes are a delicious and versatile side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of meals. By following these tips, you can make perfect roasted potatoes every time. Experiment with different seasonings and herbs to create your own unique roasted potato recipes.
